This training was based on the Surveys for the Characterisation of Animal Genetic Resources in Ecuador and was aimed at officials of this institution in the provinces of Esmeraldas, Manabí, Guayas, Santa Elena and Los Ríos.

It is worth mentioning that MAG is developing a pilot project with FAO and the COMBIAND NETWORK. For this reason, the Director of Livestock Species Development of MAG saw the need for his technicians to be trained with specialists in the subject.
