Livestock have been naturally and purposefully selected over millennia to be well-adapted to their local environment. Modern agriculture has broken down geological barriers, and breeds have been transported around the world to take advantage of productive capabilities that were not available in the locally adapted breeds. Imported breeds, in general, require more management in their new homes. In some cases, they may require a great deal more from the local environment than it can provide, leading to degradation of farm natural resources.

Join us in this FREE webinar with Dr. David Fernandez to learn about choosing livestock breeds that are well-adapted to your farm’s local environment to reduce management, costs, and environmental losses.
