In the field of conservation of farm animals biodiversity, Slovenia is in possession of research facilities, developed technologies and knowledge which can be offered to other countries. To successfully conserve animal genetic resources, Slovenia needs help in the reorganization of rearing and professional activities in animal husbandry. We need subsidies in order to modernize national capacities, and especially to establish common capacities.
