Dr. Rolly Bondoc

 

Dr. Bondoc is an animal genetics consultant– with regards to the implementation of the lNFARMCO swine genetic improvement program that is based on an effective local pig performance data recording and evaluation (statistical analysis) system.

Specifically, Dr. Bondoc oversees the development of the INFARMCO breed standards for various economically important traits in pig breeding and production, while periodically doing a “genetic audit” of genetic trends, inbreeding coefficients, and other genetic and phenotypic parameters.

He is also involved in designing on-farm applications of livestock genomics to improve and sustain production of the best INFARMCO swine genetics.  In this regard, he provides advice to sustain and promote the relevance of INFARMCO’s participation in the National Swine Performance Test (i.e. boar testing).

Dr. Bondoc also participates in conducting related swine breeding and production researches that are important contributions to INFARMCO in particular, and the Philippine swine industry, in general.
