Kemerovo breeders presented a new breed of pigs

Tribal characteristics and standards of the Chistogorskaya pig breed were presented within the XXIII International Exhibition 'MVC: Grain-Mixed-Feed-Veterinary-2018'.

The best results in comparison with other breeds were obtained due to precocity: live weight 100 kg. they reach for 161 days, spending thus on 1 kg. an increase of 2.68 kg. feeds.
