Titan
Put extra meat yield into your pigs with the Titan - a UK boar designed for the AutoFOM which rewards lean yield. Specifically bred to allow progeny to be taken to higher slaughter weights, while maintaining meat quality and Pē levels.
A Pietrain type sire noted for both its high lean content and exceptional conformation that gives a high proportion of lean in the most expensive cuts.
Qualities include:
- Exceptionally high lean meat content
- More meat in the expensive cuts
- Improved killing-out percentage
- Larger, more viable piglets at birth
- Extra hybrid vigour reduces mortality
- Increased disease resistance in progeny
- Free from the harmful halothane gene.

Quantum
The Quantum is a robust, all-round terminal sire which produces white progeny. Exceptional leg strength and high libido make the Quantum ideal for outdoor systems and also tougher indoor systems. Quantum progeny can be taken to high slaughter weights on ad-lib feeding to produce highly versatile, consistently lean carcases.
Qualities include:
- Excellent conformation
- Larger, more viable piglets at birth
- Extra hybrid vigour in progeny
- Good leg strength
- Robust fast growing progeny.
- Free from the harmful halothane gene

QM Duroc
The Quality Meat Duroc is intended for use where the primary aim is to enhance pig meat eating characteristics in response to specific retailer demand. MLC work has shown that Duroc inclusion improves juiciness and tenderness, especially when combined with ad-lib feeding. The QM Duroc also has many benefits on farm large vigorous piglets at birth which grow rapidly and efficiently, flourishing in high welfare and semi-intensive systems.
Qualities include:
- Quality meat at least cost
- Increased tenderness and juiciness
- High intramuscular fat
- Exceptional hardiness
- Large, vigorous piglets
- Extra hybrid vigour reduces mortality
- Free from the harmful halothane gene
