Outlines Advancement In Island Swine Industry

The following is the text of Mr. Alberta Clay's report presented at the B. C. annual meeting of the P.E.I. All Canada

Swine Breeders' Association: ADVANCED REGISTRY

"In spite of the low prices for inmset hogs in 1955, the breed. or: of Advanced Registry York- shires in this province have set a new record in the volume of breeding stock shipped to other provinces. with Alberta, Quebec and Ontario taking the greater number.

"This outside demand can be explained by the following per- centage of Grade A hogs:

Year P.E.l. ' All Canada

1955 82.9 28.4

I945 45.1 32.1

" ere we have concrete evid- ence that while the Canadian average over the past ten years has been declining the quality of market hogs in this province has been improving. In the prov- ince of Alberta grade A hogs av erage about so percent and there. had been no improvement in that province for many years. "Even in Ontario. which in considered the best live stock area in Canada. this percentage iv-; dropped from 35 to 30 over the past ten years. These fig- i....' explain tho factor which p ompts western and central Canadian swine producers to look to P.E. Island for breeding stock.

A NEW HIGH

,''In the uvo Stock Output Re- port issued by the Canada De- partment of Agriculture we have evidence that in 1956 Island hog producers will set a new high rocord for grade A market hogs. For the first three months of this year the percentages of (lands A hogs, leso Iowa and I

go. by provinces are as fol- lows:

Jan. Feb. Mar. 1941

58.1 58.8 35.0 49.2 53.8 47.2 49.8 3.6 30.2 32.2 32.9 23.! 2'1! 32.9 31.!

I and over

21.3 21.5 ns 22.9 27.0 28.6 28.4 29.5 30.2 81.5

"The most amazing point in this statement -Is that P. E. is- laud has improved its percentage of grade A hogs from 35 to well over ,55 during the past fliteur years while in the same period the all-Canada average has not only failed to improve but suf- fered a decline. I IMPROVEMENT IN MARITIMEB

"The only other provinces which made any improvement are N. S. and N. B. This with- out oi-cstion is the result of the use of Island breeding stock in the mainland Maritime herds.

"The most positive evidence of the superiority of I&nd Yorkshire: can be found in the 1955 Advanced Registry results. At all test stations across Can- ada test groups are fed the same rations under identical care and management.

"Any variation in the quality of the carcasses from test sta- tions must be due to no other factor but breeding. In 1955. the pigs at the Charlottetown and Nappan test stations consumed less teed per pound gain than those at any other station. At the same time they reached mar- ket weight in less days than those at other stations.

"They also led. by a wide mar- gin in the percentage of gradeA crw.-wees. The following state- ment covering nll hogs fed at oaiiadlan test stations in 1955 underlines these points of sup- eriority:

Age at Feed per 100 Qt

"Although we have reached a an ohm we must produce more

record level in hog quality. there is still room for further improve- ment. In a survey of 10.000 boss slaughtered at the local plant in l955 we found over M percent were shipped when outside the grade A weights of 140-170 lbs. Over our total annual output this carelessness in weights amount- ed to a loss of 8100.000.

"Every swine breeder should know that a carcass cannot make grade A if color to found in the

bristle roots. In spite of this fact I

we have a few breeders sending outside the province for colored bdars. Tho progeny from such boars, due to overiinish and lack of length. produce carcassol which grade much below our pro- vincial average.

IIZWAII OF IMPORTS

"I must again warn our swine Producers that rhinitis and swine mange are common in central Canada. I am convinced that we ate asking for trouble if we bring in outside ssvino breeding stock.

"over the past year. Canadian hog prices have hold much high- er than those received by . S. farmers. During last December the U. 8. price on the rail was 15.86 while the Canadian price averaged 23.04 or a difference of We cents. ,

"In spite of this price differ- ence. '(?anada exported the equi- valent of 750.000 boss to tho u.s. in. INS. Why did the U.S. take ifhnadlan pork when that country has a glut of pork ga-oductsf The

FUTURE PROSPECTS

"It is always dangerous to forecast the future hog market.

but available information in- dicates that hog prices mall lien in ...td-summe . The

.ncr-is for higher prices next fall are not bright but in the lace of an expected decline in row hrccding this spring both in Canada and the U. S. we have reason to expect that prices will show a stronger tono next win ter.

"In 1955 our Island A.R. breed era sold more breeding stock ts uutsloe buyers than in any WOV- ious year. To date this year we have moved every available breeding ago boar with prospects

phat the demand will continue.

200 POUND WEIGHT

"If we are to continue to show improvement in our hog quality there are a number of factors to which we must pay more at- tcniinn. We must reduce the num- ber of hogs shipped t ” the grade A weights. We must elim- inate the sows which produce o"e"T?t market hogs. We should ship our market hogs when they are close to N0 lbs-. live weight and in this way have leaner can 085595.

"Our breeders of registered stock must keep in mind that a hog which will not make a good carcass is not a good Yorkshire irrespective of what it may loolr like on the hoof.

"They must strive to develop longer. leaner hogs. Even in this province we have too many pure- bred Yorkshires which produce thick carcasses when fed on ideal rations. In one province the car- '-'-Toes from the test station made about so percent 3. What can be expected from such stock when placed in the hands of the ordinary commercial hog pro- ducerf -

”we can continue to develop our sales only if we make it a strict rule to keep no breeding Slocll which carry scores below 85 in their pedigrees.

"With the co-operation of. all swine producers in this province, I hope to see the time when P.E. Island will produce at least 75 percent grads Ahogs.
