In the Future
Publication
Handbook on AnGR
According the TCP between members countries and AFACI, Handbooks are must published until end of project period.
7 members countries are working in Handbook. Handbooks are published with Local langue's and
English. All counties handbook are must AFACI
standardized. AFACI secretary will provide uniform of cover
and Table of contents Handbooks are published paper and electronic
thing.
In the Future
Publication
Molecular work
Many of members countries are mentioning the molecular work of breeds in TCP RDA will supporting these works with standard of FAO method. The process of these works
Singing on Material Transfer Agreement with members county and NIAS RDA Sending and Receiving of DNA samples Analyzing of DNA by NIAS Reporting the results
