Sažetak
Productivity of pigs in a herd be increased only by using in breeding animals of above average breeding value. In assessing boars for their own production (performance test). Performance test enebles the selection of the best quality breeding boars and bacause of shorter generation interval faster genetic improvement of the her in the particular period. The most important production characteristics in the test daily gain, food utilization per day, food conversion, thickness of back fat and area of MLD. The paper indicates genetic potential and possibility of selecting young boars of the Swedish Landrace regarding essential production characteristics.
