FEEDING & TESTING
Compart Family Farms™ have a strong commitment to testing and performance documentation. Compart Family Farms has two testing facilities where 12,000 pigs are tested annually.
Compart Family Farms has a research agreement with Hubbard Feeds, an internationally recognized feed company, where research is done on Compart Duroc™ sired pigs in Compart testing facilities. Compart Family Farms utilize these testing facilities to better understand the nutritional requirements of the Compart Duroc sired pig to maximize growth rate, feed efficiency, daily lean gain, as well as muscle quality characteristics.
Hubbard Feed Ph D. swine nutritionists oversee all research as well as data interpretation. This information is essential in the formulation of the feeds that are utilized by all farms involved with the Compart Family Farms Duroc sired program.
All pigs in the Compart Family Farms Duroc sired meat program are of the same genetic makeup, and fed the same proprietary ration throughout growing and finishing phases. This combination reduces the variability routinely found in the pork industry today.
For the consumer this means a more consistent and uniform product with more consistent premium quality eating characteristics, all done naturally.
