Animal husbandry and biodiversity

Imprimer

Livestock breeding has developed a wide range of domestic breeds and regional produce, and has a great capacity to maintain large natural areas. It contributes to the maintenance of wet, dry, and high-altitude grasslands. It can also be effective in preventing forest fires. MAB France encourages the development of farming activities based on conserving local breeds, developing products using specialist knowledge, and practices that promote environmental improvement.
