The role of gene banks to conserve indigenous breeds of farm animals

Conservation of genetic resources is the responsibility of each nation, so many countries have recognized the need to improve the monitoring, conservation and documentation of animal genetic resources. Animal production is of vital importance for humanity and the preservation of genetic diversity in populations of animals providing them with the future. It is necessary for each country to develop the best single strategy or policy of conservation of farm animal genetic resources before designing national cryo-preservation program. The establishment of gene banks and the integration into breeding programs and conservation of native and endangered breeds is important for the sustainability of the overall genetic resources in Croatia.
