Imperial Swine Genetics, Inc., (ISG) is our F1 gilt line breeding stock service for the commercial producer. Using our documented pureline genetics in a crossbreeding program has enabled us to further express the traits so important to profitable hog production. With over 1,000 sows in this program and farrowing weekly, we can fill your order, whether large or small.

All ISG multiplier farms were completely depopulated, thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, then repopulated out of our SPF farms. Quarterly slaughter checks, monthly herd visits and blood testing are the norm on these farms. We utilize all-in, all-out production on all farms. All animals are mated, raised and selected to our specifications to ensure consistency in quality and quantity.

The following lines are available:

• ISG-Line 300 Gilts (GP and CGP)
• ISG-Line 68 Gilts

All gilt lines bred to our Compart D-100 Duroc boar will allow producers to maximize both maternal and terminal heterosis. Maximizing heterosis explains why Compart customers see higher birth weights, lower preweaning mortality, increased growth rates, and survivability in side-by-side comparisons with other programs.

The ISG-Line 68 gilt is a 100% whiteline female, selected for increased fertility, milk production and balanced production traits. This hyperprolific female has capabilities of over 27 pigs per sow per year.

Our recommendation is to use a Compart D-100 Duroc boar on the Line 68 gilts. We have a number of customers whose PigCHAMP records and kill sheets show the excellent performance and ultimate profitability of this breeding program. This combination gives you outstanding meat quality, leanness and per pig premiums without sacrificing milk production, growth or longevity.

The CBS-Line 300 gilt is a pureline York female selected for litter size and 21-day litter weight. Many of the elite Yorkshire sows in the breed are the result of our breeding program. This female is ideally suited for grandparent (GP) and great-grandparent (GGP) production. Yorkshire semen from these hyperprolific lines is also available through our Elite Genes A.I. boar stud.
