The history of the DanBred Landrace

DanBred Landrace originates from Danish Landrace, which has been bred specifically for production of bacon for the British market since the beginning of the 20th century. DanBred Landrace is the result of decades of professional selection, where focus has been on daily gain, feed conversion, longevity, fertility and meat quality since the early 1970s.
