Welcome to PigGen Canada

PigGen Canada is a new organization created in 2009 by swine breeding organizations in Canada in order to seize new opportunities from developments that are taking place in the field of genomics. Our objectives are two fold:

Virtually all of the swine breeding organizations with active nucleus development programs in Canada are represented and we are open to new applicants.  We feel that an inclusive approach to membership is fundamental to achieving our objectives.  We are working closely with other industry organizations and the research community in Canada and globally.
