Welcome to the CPS Bulletin Board. Please use this board for communication about the purebred swine industry. Try to keep negative posts and gossip to a minimum. Thank you.
Sometimes profit per litter is more important than number of pigs weaned .. For example if sow A has 12 pigs weaned and you can make $25 a head on them .. You made $300 on that litter and sow B has 4 pigs and you can make $300 a head on them .. On this litter you made $1200 .... Which sow would you rather have .. I'm not saying you can't have both but if I'm selecting sows to keep I'm basing my selection on profit per litter and not pigs weaned
