The Kemerovo (Russian: Keмepoвcкaя, Kemerovskaya) is a Russian breed of general-purpose pig. It was bred in Kemerovo Oblast in south-western Siberia in the Soviet era and was recognised as a breed in 1961. It derives from cross-breeding of boars of various British pig breeds with local Siberian sows.
