  • Hiro combines extra toughness with an outstanding pedigree for superior meat quality
  • Bold fronted, he is wide chested, has a big blade and excellent spring of rib
  • Extremely fluid and mobile; he has stout bone, big feet and ideal structure and cushion both front and rear
  • Well balanced, Hiro exhibits very good breed character
  • He demonstrates ideal muscle thickness and shape for a Berkshire with a big top, wide square rump and thick ham
  • The top side of his pedigree is linebred to the very prepotent sire Horizon that stood at SGI.  Several of Horizon's descendents have been tested in the NBS progeny test and always excelled in meat quality while maintaining moderate fat cover
  • The bottom side of Hiro's pedigree is very tightly bred to the Triple M Farm's Machine Line.  This is another line that has consistently excelled in meat quality
  • Because of his wide made, extra tough, super sound and very correct design a major Japanese customer urged SGI to buy Hiro so they could use him in a 1000 sow Berkshire total confinement herd where the sows are housed in crates
