NOUS CONTACTER

Here, you can find one of Denmark’s best producers of finisher pigs: Lundegaard. The farm only produces 5,000 finishers a year, nevertheless, the ambition is clear: to be the best. And for three years in a row, this farm has been declared the best finisher pig producer on the island!

From the farrowing of the first DanBred gilts, I knew I had made the right choice! Farrowing is easy, they have great prolificacy, and the DanBred sows produce a lot of milk. From 2017 to 2021, I went from 11.7 to 15.8 weaned pigs per litter. That’s four more weaned pigs per litter in just four years! To put it another way, it’s 10 more weaned piglets per sow per year.

In idyllic surroundings in southern Jutland, Denmark, you can find one of DanBred’s valuable and loyal partners: Kongstedgaard, owned by Jes Meldgaard Philipsen, who has relied on DanBred genetics for many years. He owns a multiplication, with a little over 400 sows, as well as a finisher farm.
