Myora’s Breeding Philosophy
Myora’s breeding philosophy centres around making holistic, consistent, and considered genetic and breed advancements.
Myora’s aim is to enhance pork production by delivering improvements in economic profitability, environmental sustainability, and social welfare to satisfy our customers and consumers.
Myora’s genetic objectives are based on six overarching pillars which combine a balance of both breeding and growing herd performance.
Myora’s maternal breeding philosophy emphasizes fundamental maternal qualities;
fertility, mothering ability and litter quality.
Myora’s terminal breeding philosophy focuses on a superior carcass, production efficiency and performance.
Myora’s selection process focuses on making breed enhancements through the selection of identified traits that are genetically heritable and that reflect specific and measurable gains and which ensure continued improvement aligned with our breeding philosophy. This genetic selection facilitates Myora to create a profitable product with further value for our customers.
We assess for specific maternal, functional, and saleable meat yield traits to ensure excellence in genetic performance.
The combination of our scientific genetic evaluation alongside purposeful visual selection guarantees customer satisfaction as preferred genetics for production herds. Along with our long-standing knowledge, our consultant Geneticist and utilisation of innovative technologies, Myora can maximise the genetic potential, performance and profitability for future generations.
