Maternal line boar semen to improve your swine herd genetics.

IBS Maternal Lines represent superior maternal quality traits that can be used in developing a maternal genetic program within the swine herd. Family lines consist of groupings of full-sibs, half-sibs and sons of excellent maternal line boars. While the other lines represent boars coming from herds with long reputations for providing high quality maternal genetics.

IBS is dedicated to providing “true” Maternal genetics to the swine industry. While others have selected Maternal Lines that are too Terminal and do not withstand everyday production standards, IBS takes great pride in presenting Maternal genetics that are strong in the production traits. Following each line is a list of the traits for which that particular line is most recognized.
