The Breed4Food program focuses on the development of innovative research projects in two major research areas:
- Utilizing DNA information
- Precision Phenotyping
Across the two areas Breed4Food will deliver new applied knowledge, distinct and innovative methods, software and tools, resulting in scientific breakthroughs to enhance genetic improvement to realize a profitable livestock sector, contributing to sustainability and meeting societal challenges.
Beside the two research areas, there is also a partnership between B4F and STW.
