The Piétrain NN by NUCLEUS confirms its qualities in different markets
Leader in the boar and semen market in France for 20 years, the Piétrain by NUCLEUS has been experiencing a strong growth in the Iberian market for the past 5 years.
The Spanish integrators who commend it are companies with 20 000 to 70 000 sows and recognize its superiority in breeding criteria: feed conversion ratio (30-115 kg) as the primary and essential factor of analysis, growth, absence of anomalies, and also a strong acceptance by their slaughterhouses or their clients (classification at the slaughterhouse based on the animal's conformation and carcass yield).
The organization of companies in Spain, with multi-site farms, allows for comparative tests with very large volumes of data, conducted simultaneously in the same post-weaning and fattening buildings, with the same feed, and an ease of data collection (weighing entire trucks of 2 000 recently weaned piglets at the entrance and all outgoing animals - carcass yield). Today, also slaughterhouses aim to consider the type, homogeneity, and quality of the pigs slaughtered.
The Piétrain NN by NUCLEUS is in competition with all the major global operators and only economics matter! “Economic cost per kg of overall growth - cents of euro bonus at the slaughterhouse - speed to sell the entire batch - loss rate.”
We thank our Spanish partners for their trust and willingness to increase their collaborations with NUCLEUS.
In this dynamic, NUCLEUS is increasing its investments in the Piétrain NN by NUCLEUS line with new projects aimed at ensuring the quality of the animals sold.
