GenTORE receives many mentions in local press
The GenTORE project was presented at the annual meeting of the Association of Parda de Montaña Beef Cattle breeders (ARAPARDA).

Daniel Villalba presented the ongoing work carried out by UdL and CITA, namely the regional assessment of the socioeconomic and productive context of beef cattle production, through ongoing surveys to farmers in different Pyrenean valleys.

​GenTORE received many mentions in the regional press, read more about it here.
Coming up GenTORE’s first annual meeting
GenTORE – “GENomic management Tools to Optimize Resilience and Efficiency” – kicked off not very long ago, in June 2017. Ever since, all 21 project partners were committed to gain more insights in the tricky balance between cattle resilience and efficiency in widely varying environments, while engaging its stakeholders.

On 15 & 16 May GenTORE’s project partners will have their first annual meeting to reflect on the results and achievements so far, as well as an opportunity to clarify the expectations for the next year.

These annual meetings are also a chance for the 21 project partners from 11 different countries across Europe to meet physically at least once a year, discuss the project’s progress and create a link through GenTORE.

​We look forward to this event!
