Preface

 

The APEC-ATC Sub-Group on Conservation and Utilization of Plant and Animal Genetic Resources has held four Workshops since its initiation in 1995.  The second workshop, namely Workshop on Conservation and Utilization of Farm Animal and Aquatic Genetic Resources, was held in November 1998 in Tainan, Chinese Taipei emphasizing more on animal genetic resources.  The objectives of the Workshop were to discuss the cultural, social and economic value and importance of animal genetic resources; to exchange the expertise on conservation and utilization measures and technologies among member economies; to share information on genetic resources collections; and to formulate future collaboration plans.  In addition to status reports from member economies, several prominent experts were invited to deliver lectures related to the workshop themes.

Following by one of the workshop recommendations submitted to the ATC Working Group, an APEC booklet focusing on the relationship between indigenous animals and human with local agricultural implications was scheduled and entrusted later to the Chinese Society of Animal Science by Council of Agriculture, Chinese Taipei.  The objectives of the Society are to promote research and education in bringing together scientists and educators in farm animal agriculture, facilitating the dissemination of scientific and technical information through publications and scientific meetings, and conducting a scientific liaison and outreach program in support of farm animal agriculture.  Therefore, we hope that this publication will assist not only in sharing expertise and experience with friends, but also promoting international cooperation among economies of the Asia-Pacific region.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the researcher involved in this project, and particularly to Drs. Hsiu-Luan Chang and Yu-Chia Huang, Researchers of Livestock Research Institute, Dr. Yung-Yi Sung, Emeritus Professor of Animal Science Department, National Taiwan University, and Dr. Su-San Chang, Chief of International Organization Division, International Cooperation Department, COA, for the time and effort they have spent in making this booklet possible.  I also extend my gratitude to the generous grant from Council of Agriculture, Chinese Taipei, for this publication.
