THIS IS
NO WAY TO
CREATE A
TERMINAL
LINE.
DNA GENETICS HAS A BETTER WAY:
CONTINUOUS, RIGOROUS IMPROVEMENT.
AND ZERO GUESSWORK.
Funny thing about developing terminal lines: There are those
who mix and cross line after line, searching, hoping
for a bull's-eye.
Then there's the DNA Genetics approach. A single
line – the Line 600 Duroc – and a steady, relentless
commitment to improvement.
Two very different schools of thought. But only one has
yielded North America's most widely used terminal line. And
that's the only bull's-eye we need.
