Research was performed on four farms, on 2434 highly fertile females Landrace and Yorkshire, and 28 boars of Danish origin, or 7684 consecutive parities, in period 2009 - 2012. Study of genetic parameters of conventional breeds Landrace and Yorkshire were conducted on 3964 females who mated with 49 males or 15764 litters in the same period. Estimates of genetic parameters for litter size show the same tendency as the legality of the purebred sows that produce 11-14 weaned piglets less per sow per year. Environmental factors, HYS, food technology and management expressed no significant effect on traits. Heritability and repeatability of live and still born piglets, litter size and the live at day 5 after birth and the number of piglets weaned in category of low hereditary traits whose values vary within the limits of 0.07 to 0.12 for the heritability and from 0.15 to 0.19 for the repeatability. There was tendency of lower values of genetic parameters in the conventional compared to highly fertile sows, which is considered to be the effect of selection on gene frequency for the observed traits.
