"It is a great breakthrough for DanAvl to enter the Finnish market, I believe it is because we can demonstrate proven results in terms of feed conversion and low mortality rates - results which can also benefit Finnish pig farmers," says Nicolaj Nørgaard, CEO of the Danish Pig Research Centre, which owns the DanAvl brand.
