| Description: | |
| At present, farm animal genetic resources are used to a various extent and with different objectives in Slovakia. The use of highly productive breeds or hybrids aimed at profitable and competitive production prevails. To a smaller extent, breeds that are a part of Slovakia’s and world cultural heritage are kept. The improvement of these breeds for high production or reproduction traits is not a priority. | |
