What is animal breeding and why is it important for sustainable farming was written by Ana Granados Chapatte in 2021. It is one page long and has four parts: Animal Breeding and Reproduction, What is Animal Breeding?, Why is Animal Breeding Important?, and Balanced Breeding. This journal was written to inform people who are curious about animal breeding. The journal talks about how animal breeding is used to help improve production. As Chapatte writes in the first part of the journal, "Animal breeding plays an important part in progressing animal production systems, from conventional to organics. By improving the abilities of animals for certain traits entire populations can be enhanced, creating benefits for farmers, consumers, and the environment." (Chapatte, p.1). The journal had many points that fascinated me, such as how animal breeding can reduce environmental impact. Chapatte provided a lot of information in her journal, which is good and valuable. This is a journal to read if you want to get into animal breeding or are just interested in how impactful animal breeding is.
