It's great to see another PIC team member recognized for her impressive career journey in celebration of Women's History Month and International Women's Day. Ashley Hengen, we’re proud to have you as part of the PIC team!

Half of a terminal pig’s genetics are inherited from the maternal line, making her impact on performance impossible to ignore. In a recent trial, Camborough® maternal barrows outperformed those from a competitor line, delivering: 📈 Higher Wean-to-Finish ADG 🥇 Superior Feed Efficiency 💰 $3.14 Economic Advantage per Pig Placed The Camborough isn’t just built for reproductive success—she also passes efficiency and performance to all her offspring. The result? More profitable pigs and a stronger bottom line. 📊 See the full trial results: https://bit.ly/4iZUx8r #PICGenetics #SwineProduction

March is a time to celebrate women shaping industries, breaking barriers and driving innovation – just like Lucina Galina Pantoja. As Director of Technical Projects at PIC, she applies her DVM and PhD in swine medicine to turn cutting-edge research into practical solutions. Lucina’s passion for research started young, sparked by a desire to understand the “why.” That curiosity has influenced her throughout her career, which she describes as detective work. Today, she’s still solving puzzles that help improve animal health and production. Throughout her career, Lucina has seen more women step into leadership roles in the industry, but she believes there’s still work to do. Her advice? Pursue what excites you and never hesitate to advocate for yourself. “If you weren’t invited to the table, pull up a chair,” she says. For Lucina, diversity isn’t just about representation; it’s about different perspectives collaborating for better ideas and better solutions. “When different perspectives come together, that’s where real innovation happens.” Know a woman who inspires you?
