The 'Code of Good Practice for Farm Animal Breeding and Reproduction Organisations' addresses the issues of food safety and public health, product quality, genetic diversity, efficiency, environmental impact, animal health, animal welfare, and breeding and reporduction technologies. CODE-EFABAR is following the principles of sustainable breeding as they have been developed in the EU funded project SEFABAR by scientists and industry, animal welfare organisations, ethicists, economists for world trade aspects and sociology of cultural differences and public opinion.
The Code gives a transparent presentation of the priciples of conduct of farm animal breeders and backs these priciples by practical rules of conduct.
The European Forum of Farm Animal Breeders (EFFAB) has taken the initiative for the Code, and it was developed in the EU-Project Code-EFABAR.
