EFFAB Information

EFFAB is the association that brings together organisations and companies active in animal breeding and reproduction across Europe. Our members contribute to the genetic improvement of farm animal species including ruminants, pigs, poultry, fish and insects, supporting more sustainable, resilient and efficient food systems. At the intersection of science, innovation and policy, EFFAB works to strengthen the role of animal breeding and genetics in addressing key European challenges such as food security, sustainability, animal welfare, climate resilience and competitiveness. EFFAB engages with EU institutions, research and innovation networks, policymakers, stakeholders and the wider public to promote evidence-based dialogue and support enabling frameworks for responsible innovation in animal breeding and reproduction. As coordinator of the FABRE Technology Platform (FABRE TP), EFFAB also contributes to shaping the European research and innovation agenda for the livestock sector.
