Popis: Protection and preservation of valuable local breeds is a priority of the Experimental Station of Agriculture - Sredets for implementation of the state policy in the field of breeding, management and conservation of genetic resources. These processes are a function of the Livestock Act, which defines as important tasks management of genetic resources, their use for efficient production of animal products and the conservation of populations of farm animals adapted to different agro-ecological regions of the country. The East Balkan swine and Bulgarian gray cattle are local breeds, classified by risk status as endangered under the approach of FAO (2007). Both breeds are nuclei and are included in the records of the breeding herds maintained regulated by EASRAB. In recent years due to aggressive human activity valuable local breeds that are part of the heritage of the country have irrevocably disappeared. Proper management of genetic resources requires compliance with the principles of sustainable development in agriculture and stopping loss of populations of local breeds. Experimental Station of Agriculture - Sredets works on the ambitious task of contributing to the protection and maintenance of genetic diversity among domestic animals in Bulgaria, by storing and maintaining both valuable rare breeds - Bulgarian gray cattle and East Balkan swine
