MEAT QUALITY REWARDS PROGRAM

  

Under this program, breeders will be rewarded for using top meat quality sires and exhibiting their offspring at nationally sponsored ABA shows. Qualifying shows are the Winter and Summer Type Conferences, the World Pork Expo and the National Barrow Show. 

To qualify for this program, entries at any of these four shows must be sired by a boar that has had a NBS progeny test pen in the top 50% of his contemporary group in the meat quality index. This program will not change the way the ABA runs any of the four shows, but will additionally reward champions, reserve champions and class winners that qualify for this program. If an entry meets the requirements and places in one of the following categories, the ABA will award the breeder with a banner and the following credit to their ABA account:

Class Winning Boar: $100

Reserve Champion Boar: $250

Champion Boar: $500

Class Winning Gilt: $50

Reserve Champion Gilt: $125

Champion Gilt: $250
