[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 906413, member: 14661"] AI is even easier for pigs than it is for cattle. Anyone with basic livestock savy can do it with a list of instructions, a good sense of humor, and a willingness to ignore the overwhelming creep factor that it takes to get some of them to "lock down". When you consider that you wind up with an entire litter that's ready in a year for around the same cost of breeding a cow it's more cost effective as well. Berkshires are a good choice and the old fashioned Durocs also have alot of backfat but alot of the newer durocs are bred to be lean. Find a good source and you can hand pick the sire that suits your needs. [/QUOTE]
