The Poland China is an American breed of domestic pig, first bred in Warren County, Ohio, in the American Midwest. Its origins lie in a small number of pigs of Chinese type bought in 1816, which were cross-bred with a variety of breeds of European origin, including the Berkshire. It was developed as a lard pig and is among the largest of all pig breeds.
