- Average weaning weight for the 13.57 weaned per sow farrowed is 15.9 lb. at 23 days.
- Litters per sow per year is 2.457 giving a 148.5 day average sow cycle time. With the 23 day weaning and 6 days wean to mating this means an excellent 4.5 empty days per cycle.

- Pigs reach 289 lb. liveweight at 180 days from birth.
- Wean to finish mortality is 4.6% and pigs show very few signs of vice.
