Sustainable Swine Breeding

As a global leader, Hendrix Genetics wants to pave the way towards a more sustainable pork industry. Setting the standards on economic, social and environmental sustainability is more important than ever. Economics are the cornerstone of a sound sector and a driving factor in every production phase.

The genetic progress delivered by our Hypor sows, piglets, finishers and meat creates economic returns for the entire pork chain. At the same time, we set new standards on social sustainability by selecting for self-reliant animals that thrive in all environments. Sows that perform in any housing system. On top of that, we research elimination of animal treatments like castration, tail-docking and preventive antibiotics. In the end, delicious and nutritious pork is our ultimate promise to the consumer.
