Summary
Definition of the problem:
Is there any genotype x environment interaction, how important is it and how can it be implemented in to sustainable organic cattle breeding?
Project aims including target group:
Based on empiric date the preconditions to elaborate concrete breeding programs for organic cattle farmers shall be created.
Methodology:
-Estimation of genotype x environment interaction of organic and conventional farms with Swiss performance data
-Estimation of genotype x environment interaction of organic and conventional farms with specific farms in Germany
-Assessment of different breeding strategies for sustainable organic cattle breeding
-Buildup of a date based information system as breeding and management assistance for organic cattle farmer
