Livestock diversity will feed the changing world
The trend of shrinking genetic diversity of reared animals creates risk in the face of climate change. By narrowing down diversity, we are decreasing the capability of our animal production systems to cope with unpredictable weather events.
A critical step to tackling this challenge is to make sure our food production systems are more resistant. The key to doing so is to reinforce the biological capacity of our livestock to adapt to fast changing conditions.
