SIDE EVENT: Launch of Code EFABAR 2023
Join us to discuss the future of sustainable animal breeding in European agriculture under the theme "Shaping the Future: Sustainable Animal Breeding in EU Agriculture’’, taking place on May 30th from 16h30 to 19h00 at the University Foundation, Brussels.
As Global Food Systems continue to face pressing challenges such as the climate crisis and biodiversity loss, food security has become increasingly important. Furthermore, animal-sourced food production faces additional challenges due to changing perceptions of animal farming.
On Tuesday 30th May 2023, EFFAB and FABRE TP are organizing an event to explore the role of animal breeders in creating new generations of farmed animals. We will discuss how breeding programs have integrated the concept of sustainable balanced breeding and how it can continue to evolve to improve the sustainability of food systems.
Did you know that Code EFABAR, the code of good practices for animal breeders, reflects the importance of balanced breeding?
During the event, we will launch the Code EFABAR 2023, the latest version of the Code that is reviewed every three years. This will provide an excellent opportunity to connect with animal breeders, scientists, and stakeholders from the animal farming sector, and discuss the way forward for sustainable animal breeding in EU agriculture.
Take part in the conversation and contribute to shaping the future of animal breeding!
