Discover how science can power a nation’s farm economy through the breeding industry.
This concise work explains why breeding stock matters to agriculture, and how research, records, and thoughtful policy can grow a country’s wealth and food security.
The author argues that the breeding industry is a national priority and that science has not yet been fully applied to it. It outlines a practical plan for organizing knowledge, funding long-term work, and coordinating government and private efforts to improve livestock, dairy, meat, and other animal resources.

- A clear picture of why the breeding industry affects every farmer and consumer
- An overview of three key work areas: records, research, and administration
- Insight into how a unified approach could reduce waste and boost efficiency
- A sense of the historical context and the stakes for national agriculture
Ideal for readers of agricultural history, policy discussions, and anyone curious about how science shapes farming and food supplies.
