Summary in the original language of the document

With this newsletter we are informing our readers about progress made in the subprojects of the LowInputBreeds project.
Our thematic article in this issue by Ferry Leenstra and Veronika Maurer explains the difference of free range and organic poultry farms and farmers.
We would particularly like to draw your attention to the 1st article on page 2 about the next LowInputBreeds symposium which takes place from May 15 to 18 2012 in Tunisia – this is an ideal opportunity to share findings from the project and we would like to encourage all partners to submit an abstract.
