Meat-type lines require feeding for accurate results, as overfat lines appeared in testing. A top boar weighed 240 pounds at 5 months with 1.1 inches back fat at 200 pounds and a feed conversion of 300 pounds feed per 100 pounds gain. The station aims for full scale operation starting April 1 1956.
