The PIC Camborough®

The PIC Camborough® standing in profile against a white background

Productive sows, fewer non-productive days, efficient offspring, and stronger profitability across your system. That’s the advantage of swine genetics built on data, discipline, and continuous improvement.

Proven in commercial systems

Built for commercial environments, the PIC Camborough® delivers more quality pigs weaned per sow per year, exceptional farrowing rates and refined sow longevity under even the most demanding conditions:

  • 34.6+ Pigs Per Sow Per Year[1]
  • 89.2% Farrowing Rate1
  • 10.7% Pre-Wean Mortality1
  • 43 Fewer Non-Productive Days[2]

Genetics built through deeper performance insight

PIC continuously advances how sow performance is measured and understood to drive genetic progress.

Investments in digital phenotyping, advanced analytics and artificial intelligence allow PIC to capture deeper insights into sow performance than ever before.

Through the Maternal GNX program, PIC captures phenotypic and genomic data from thousands of pedigreed crossbred daughters raised in commercial production system. This real-world performance data directly influences the selection of PIC Camborough® genetics.

Insights generated through advanced measurement and large-scale data are continuously used to refine selection objectives and develop novel traits that better reflect real-world sow performance and long-term commercial value:

Digital Longevity
Predicts the likelihood a sow remains productive in the herd longer without removal for structural issues, supporting improved sow longevity.

Reproductive Success
Estimates the probability of a sow being retained through parity one and beyond, helping reduce reproductive removals and improve long-term sow productivity.

Pre-Wean Gain
Measures piglet growth from birth to weaning, capturing both piglet potential and the sow’s contribution through milk production and maternal care to support quality weaned pigs.

This translates into sows that last longer, reproduce more reliably, and raise better pigs from day one.

Creating value across the system

The PIC Camborough® supports performance across your system, from earlier breeding age and fewer non-productive days to downstream growth performance and carcass value. Strong mothering ability contributes to large, uniform litters, lower pre-wean mortality, and more quality weaned pigs. Her genetic contribution to offspring supports fast, efficient growth and improved wean-to-finish performance.

Performance backed by expertise

Capturing the full value of genetic progress requires more than genetics alone. As PIC continues elevating health status across the genetic pyramid, producers are positioned to more consistently express the genetic potential and downstream advantages built into Camborough® genetics.

We combines genetics with technical expertise, reliable supply, and ongoing customer support designed to help producers maximize the Camborough’s lifetime performance.

The results keep getting better: productive sows, efficient offspring, and performance driving stronger profitability across your system.

That’s the PIC® Camborough®.
