Investigation of quality and quantity indexes of sperm production of boars of Yorkshire, Landrace, Duroc breeds of Danish selection was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Quality and quantity indexes were analyzed in accordance with ejaculate volume, spermium concentration and activity at different age-specific periods in the comparative aspect. Thorough analysis of quality indexes (ejaculate volume; spermium concentration; spermatozoon motility; sperm quantity) of semen production of studied breeds at different age-specific stages (before 7 months old; 7-10 months; 10-12 months; 12 months and older) was presented. Coefficients of variation of valuation indexes of semen production were stated. Research results showed that the lowest ejaculate volume was typical for boars of Duroc breed, but the quantity of spermium in ejaculate of this breed since 10-month old age was the highest – 92,6 milliard, that made it possible for this breed of boars to take premier place according to the index of spermium quantity in ejaculate. The same index for boars of Landrace and Yorkshire at age of 12 months old and older was 77,5 and 76,3 milliards, respectively. High variability of indexes of evaluation of semen production was due the reason that the research was taking place at the period of formation of productivity over the whole pig stock. Research results proved that indexes of semen production of producer boars of Yorkshire, Landrace, Duroc breeds of Danish selection depended on the breed and high variability indexes
