JINPINGHEN Native Piglets

Last updated 2026-11-10 — The "Jinpinghen" native piglets from Pinghu are hybrid two-way crossbred piglets produced using the world-renowned Taihu pig (Jiaxing Black pig) as the primary dam and a White Yorkshire boar as the sire, or hybrid three-way crossbred piglets produced using a Changjia dam (i.e., a first-generation hybrid female pig born from the mating of a White Yorkshire boar and a Jiaxing Black pig) as the dam and a Large White or Duroc boar as the terminal sire. After disease prevention measures, these piglets are tagged with an ear tag marked “Zhejiang Pinghu,” serving as both an immunization and brand identifier.
