[Objective] To explore the path and method of sustainable development of livestock and poultry germplasm resources in Liangshan Prefecture.[Methods] In this study, literature review, village visits, household exchanges, interviews and other methods were used to discuss the development of local breeds in Liangshan from the aspects of stock, population distribution, production performance characteristics, feeding methods, protection, improvement and breeding.[Results] Through extensive and rigorous investigation, it was discovered that the quantity of Dechang buffalo, Jinyang silk-wool chicken, steel goose, and Huili donkey among the existing 15 local livestock breeds in Liangshan is decreasing year by year and is in an endangered state. The local awareness regarding the protection of livestock and poultry species is not robust. The protection and utilization lack systematic planning and core seed industry technology. Issues such as the absence of outstanding characteristics of livestock and poultry breeds and the deficiency in product development have restricted the healthy and sustainable development of local high-quality livestock and poultry breeds.[Conclusion] We should fully leverage existing policies and projects to guide and standardize the breeding system. Enhance the variety industrial chain, develop and produce local characteristic products; Reinforce the supporting role of scientific and technological innovation, cultivate new breeds of livestock and poultry and supporting lines; Build a model of integrated development of the primary, secondary and tertiary industries, and facilitate the "multiple penetration" of agriculture and various industries. |
