Search by Breed Idaho Pasture
Idaho Pasture Pigs are a relatively new American breed developed for efficient, pasture-based pork production. Created by crossing Duroc, Berkshire, and Kunekune genetics, these pigs were specifically bred to graze grass while maintaining excellent meat quality. Their smaller size, upturned snouts, and easygoing nature make them ideal for rotational grazing and sustainable farming systems.
Idaho Pasture Pigs grow quickly on forage and minimal grain, offering farmers a low-maintenance, environmentally friendly option. Their tender, marbled pork is highly prized, and their friendly temperament makes them a favorite among small farms, homesteaders, and first-time pig owners.
