Clearer understanding is needed of the premises underlying SI and how it relates to food-system priorities.
Summary During the past decade a large number of genetic diversity studies in domestic livestock based on microsatellite loci was carried out all over world. A survey among research groups reveals that 50% 87 projects more than eight breeds are investigated. Breeds chosen mainly because their long history isolation, unique phenotypic qualities or an evolution within environment. In half average planned sample size per breed is higher 50. Small ruminants investigated majority projects. The...
This study investigates how the ecosystem services (ES) linked to livestock grazing are perceived across countries. A total of 82 case studies collected from 42 countries via survey (53.7% cases Europe and 46.3% outside Europe) have been analysed through a multivariate approach. In all, 18 non-provisioning ES were considered. Overall, reported impacts on different much more positive than negative. Notably, large proportion respondents either or very for some cultural ES, namely cultural,...
The global poultry sector is divided into a large-scale commercial sub-sector dominated by international, vertically integrated companies, and small-scale subsector that provides up to 90 percent of total production in some the least developed countries. fast reproduction cycle, low unit costs, economies scale research appropriation, control produce are driving factors sector. Private concentrates on technologies likely result market applications returns investment. incentives for animal...
The Global Plan of Action for Animal Genetic Resources was adopted by 109 countries in Interlaken, September 2007. It aims to promote a pragmatic, systematic and efficient overall approach, which harmoniously addresses the development institutions, human resources, cooperative frameworks, resource mobilization sustainable use conservation animal genetic resources. contains five Strategic Priorities on conservation. Countries have thereby committed themselves develop national policies,...
The Global Plan of Action (GPA) for Animal Genetic Resources (AnGR) adopted by FAO recognizes the role AnGR food security through improved productivity while maintaining genetic diversity. A critical issue conservation and improvement programmes is availability supportive infrastructure. objective present study was to assess existing needed infrastructure sustainable use in a sample countries Southern Eastern Africa. Information primarily obtained from semi-structured interviews with key...
Abstract Poultry sectors are the fastest-changing component of general livestock sector. These changes typified by tremendous growth in poultry populations industrial production systems. systems generally separate feed mills, breeding, and processing into different operations. In a competitive market environment, such operations may be physically separated, but closely integrated strong private regulations. less environments, encouraged protection policies, chains loosely weakly regulated...
This study investigates the relationships between various environmental and geographic, demographic, socioeconomic factors with diversity of livestock breeds reported within countries across world. Statistical analyses were performed considering numbers by 158 for 4 mammalian species (cattle, sheep, goats, pigs). Organization Economic Cooperation Development (OECD) more than non-OECD in general. Strong positive correlations found agricultural area, human population size, number per country....
Summary In light of the upcoming first International Technical Conference on Animal Genetic Resources (September 2007), experts have been interviewed to tell about their experiences in management animal genetic resources over past fifty years. They identified three milestones history (AnGR) management: foundation Rare Breeds Survival Trust (1973), FAO/UNEP 1980 Consultation AnGR, and signing Convention Biological Diversity (1992). Conservation AnGR started at grassroot level eventually led...
