The European Livestock Breeds Ark and Rescue Net began in 2007 with a three year project funded by the European Commission under the work programme of Council Regulation (EC) No 870/2004. This project was completed in 2010 (Final Report). A full description of the EU funded project can be found here (Executive summary) and under the menu point “ELBARN 2007-2010”.
The European network for livestock breeds will be continued into the future by the SAVE Foundation.
