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.
