INPASS. Research on sustainable and healthy agro-livestock production
A25_23R
The INPASS group aims to strengthen the role of livestock, and the agriculture and food industry associated with it, in the rural development of Aragon.
To do this, it addresses aspects related to genetics, reproduction, health, feeding and general management of herds, as well as their repercussions on the quality of Aragonese livestock products.
What do we do?
- Optimization of livestock systems:
- Food: diets optimized by productive status, with functional capacity and that promote the circular economy
- Genetics: genes and markers related to productive traits and disease resistance, use in selection schemes
- Reproduction: sustainable improvement of the reproductive efficiency of herds
- Improving the quality and marketing of products of animal origin: management and technology
Main projects, patents, etc.
