Sustainable goat breeding and goat farming in the Central and Eastern European countries. European Regional Conference on Goats, 7-13 April, 2014

The aims of these scientific meetings were to evaluate the situation of goat breeding and farming in Central, Eastern and Southeastern European countries, and to increase the knowledge on sustainable goat breeding and goat farming, animal nutrition, environment protection and production systems, animal welfare, animal health and methods for improving reproduction, and the possible relationship between the consumption of goat products and human health. There were 184 participants from 29 countries. There were 92 oral and 18 poster presentations introduced during the conference. Because of space limitations, only the papers from the Plenary Session and the FAO workshop (Session 1) are included in this book, along with selected papers from other sessions, the round table and the workshops on reproduction. The Plenary Session addressed the main question of the conference and workshop: the environmental impact of goat farming and its integration into a sustainable system.
