This project investigates the historical genetic diversity of livestock to understand its impact on agricultural productivity and resilience against diseases. By analyzing ancient DNA and historical data, it aims to inform sustainable breeding practices for future food security.
Over the last 50 years, chicken production has increased fivefold, chicken growth rate has tripled, and milk production per cow has doubled.
Yet, many of the biotechnological tools responsible for this accelerated trend are now under threat of becoming obsolete.
While the causes are numerous, one significant driver is a dramatic reduction of genetic diversity in livestock populations.Cycles of agricultural productivity growth and decline have occurred throughout European history, spurred by majo…
