Minnesota No. 1 pig series hailed as scientific breakthrough
In Minnesota a new streamlined pig line named Minnesota No. 1 and a companion No. 2 claim to revolutionize swine breeding. Led by Prof. M. Winters at the University of Minnesota, the project since 1924 uses inbreeding, cross breeding, and selection to boost litter size and carcass quality. The No. 1 averages about 8–9 pigs per litter, with higher loin meat percentage and lean trimming praised by packers, signaling a shift from promotion to sustained research.
