Summary

Yearly work plans were developed in consultation with a Consultative Group setting research and development priorities for BREED PLAN, BREED OBJECT and BREEDING STRUCTURE. The Consultative Group responded to industry requirements, new research opportunities and changing staff availability at AGBU. The principal investigators in the project think of the cooperation with the Consultative Group during the time of the project as being successful and fruitful. The Consultative Group and a Breed Society Technical Officers Liaison group convened by Brian Sundstrom on behalf of Performance Breeders Association developed an ownership of the research program of this project. This is seen as very important for the dissemination and early implementation of the research findings. The main objectives of the project were achieved.
