The original Viking stayed at SGI for over 7 years because of his popularity with the commercial producers. His daughters are consistently very prolific and heavy milkers that recycle and conceive immediately after weaning. Longevity has also been a strength of the Viking daughters. Viking 196-5 should certainly transmit high maternal production when one also considers his dam is by Jens 448 that has been a trait leader for litter weight, Maternal Line Index and Sow Productivity Index. Viking is an extra wide made, heavy structured and very tough durable boar that is super sound. With an EPD of -5.70 for days he can also give you a shot of growth in your maternal line. We are confident Viking can carry on the high standard of sow productivity of SGI Swedish Yorkshires with a bonus of added growth and toughness.
