Animal Breeding in the Tropics and Subtropics

Institution

Description

Livestock farming systems at vulnerable locations are subject to environmental, economic and socio-cultural influence-sizes, which have interactive effects on forms and procedures of animal husbandry and feature and influence performance characteristics. Only through the assessment of determining factors of the husbandry system, a sustainable basis for decision-making for the development of animal production systems will be created. Optimization processes for breeding and husbandry practices under suboptimal conditions must be viewed much differentiated. Not only factors of climatology and ecology but also the economic framework conditions must be seen.
