I. Introduction
In line with the request of the Twelfth Regular Session of the Commission on Genetic Resources for
Food and Agriculture, this report follows the structure set out in the document Format and content of
future status and trends reports on animal genetic resources,2 taking into account the amendments
requested by the Commission at its Fourteenth Regular Session. The analysis is based on FAO’s
Global Databank for Animal Genetic Resources, backbone of the Domestic Animal Diversity
Information System (DAD-IS). It updates the data published in the report Status and trends of animal
genetic resources – 2012.3
Prior to the analysis, all National Coordinators for the Management of Animal Genetic Resources
were asked to update their national data as fully as possible by a set deadline and were reminded of the
need to enter data related to the new locally adapted versus exotic breed classification set out in the
document Report of a consultation on the definition of breed categories4 and that they also have the
option of indicating that a given locally adapted breed is native to the respective country.
The present report begins by describing the state of reporting on animal genetic resources, and the
progress made in this respect during the reporting period. A description of the current regional
distribution of livestock species and breeds is then presented, followed by an overview of the risk
status of the world’s livestock breeds and trends in risk status over the reporting period. In line with
the Commission’s request, a cut-off point of ten years has been introduced into the calculation of
trends in risk status and diversity: Any breed for which no population data have been reported for ten
years is now considered to be of unknown risk status. Trends were calculated on the basis of the most
up-to-date current and historical data available in DAD-IS as of 18 June 2014. The report presents the
set of resource indicators set out in the document Targets and indicators for animal genetic resources5
and agreed upon by the Commission at its Fourteenth Regular Session. The annexes to the report
provide a detailed breakdown of the state of reporting, by country and by region.
II. State of reporting
The Global Databank for Animal Genetic Resources currently contains data from 182 countries and 38
species. The total number of national breed populations recorded in the Global Databank has increased
during the reporting period (Table 1). The total number of mammalian national breed populations
recorded in June 2014 was 11 062, as compared 10 712 in June 2012. The total number of avian
national breed populations recorded in 2014 was 3 807, as compared to 3 482 in 2012.
Since 2012, the percentage of avian national breed populations for which any population data
(including also those were no updates have been provided during the last ten years) are available has
increased from 48 percent to 56 percent, while in the case of mammals there has been an improvement
from 57 percent to 60 percent not applying the ten year cut-off point as described above (Table 1).
Twenty-seven countries updated their national data in 2013 and 53 in 2014. However, for 78 percent
of national breed populations, no data on population size have been reported for any of the last four
years (2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014). Figure 1 provides a regional breakdown of the reporting figures.
The number of breed populations recorded by countries in the European and the Caucasus region has
increased by 265 for avian breeds and 315 for mammalian breeds compared to 2012. Despite this large
increase in the number of breed populations reported, the percentage of breed populations for which
population figures have been reported stayed the same as in 2012 (84 percent) for mammalian breed
populations and increased for avian breed populations from 65 percent in 2012 to 77 percent in 2014.
However, updating activities differ significantly between countries and regions. Figure 2 provides
insight into the global updating activities of population size data since March 2007, revealing big gaps
in many regions of the world.
In line with the Commission’s request, DAD-IS has been further developed so as to allow the entry of
data indicating whether breed populations are locally adapted or exotic to the respective country.
National Coordinators were invited to enter these data for all their national breed populations. By June
2014, 12 504 national breeed populations remained unclassified by National Coordinators. Because

(http://www.fao.org/ag/againfo/programmes/en/genetics/documents/ITWG_AnGR_5_09_3_2.pdf). 3 CGRFA-13/11/Inf.17 (http://www.fao.org/docrep/meeting/022/am649e.pdf).

such a large number of unclassified breed populations would have precluded any interpretation of
indicators that involve the use of the new breed classification, the empty breed classification fields
were provisionally filled for the purpose of calculating and testing these indicators. Based on the
assumption that local and regional transboundary breeds are more likely to be locally adapted than
international transbondary breeds, unclassified breeds belonging to the first two distribtional
categories were assigned to the locally adapted category and international transboundary breeds
assigned to the exotic category. Due to the lack of data regarding the adaptedness class of breeds
provided by National coordinators, figures and tables based on this classification system can only be
considered as examples for presenting such type of data in future reports.

III. Breed diversity
A global total of 8 774 breeds (compared to 8 262 in 2012 and 8 054 in 2010) have been reported;
7 718 are local breeds (compared to7 020 in 2012 and 7 001 in 2010) and 1 056 are transboundary
breeds (compared to and 1 060 in 2014 and 1 053 in 2010). Among the transboundary breeds, 510
(compared to 509 in 2012 and 504 in 2010) are regional transboundary breeds (occur in only one
region) and 546 (compared to 551 in 2012 and 549 in 2010) are international transboundary breeds
(occur in more than one region). A total of 647 breeds (compared to of 628 in 2012 and 631 in 2010)
are classified as extinct, of which 4 (compared to 7 in 2012 and 2010) are transboundary breeds (3
regional and 1 international). In the following analysis of breed diversity, extinct breeds are excluded.
Figure 3 shows, in the inner ring, the share of local, regional transboundary and international
transboundary breeds among the mammalian and avian breeds of the world. More than two-thirds of
reported breeds are mammalian. Among mammals, the number of regional transboundary breeds is
slightly higher than the number of international transboundary breeds. Conversely, in avian species,
there are twice as many international transboundary breeds as there are regional transboundary breeds.
The outer ring of Figure 3 shows the number of breeds that are classified as locally adapted and the
number classified as exotic. The “mixed” category refers to transboundary breeds whose national
populations are not all assigned to the same adaptedness category. As many breed classifications
remain provisional (see above), the results must be interpreted with caution. However, the majority of
breeds reported to DAD-IS seem to be locally adapted.
In all regions of the world, mammalian breeds outnumber avian breeds (Figure 4, inner ring). There is,
however, considerable variation between regions in terms of the shares of locally adapted and exotic
breeds in the total number of breeds. In Europe and the Caucasus, Asia, and the Near and Middle East,
locally adapted breeds make up between 80 and 87 percent of all breeds. In Africa, and Latin America
and the Caribbean, the share of locally adapted breeds is smaller, but still exceeds 60 percent of all
breeds. Conversely, breeds of exotic or mixed category make up more than 50 percent of the total in
the Southwest Pacific and North America (Figure 4, outer ring).
Regional transboundary mammalian breeds are relatively numerous in Europe and the Caucasus. It is
only in Europe and the Caucasus that there are a significant number of regional transboundary avian
breeds.

Note that international transboundary breeds are counted in each region where they occur. Therefore, for this
category of breeds, the global total is not the sum of the regional totals.
Tables 2a and 3a, respectively, show the number of reported local breeds of mammalian and avian
species for each region of the world. For most livestock species, Europe and the Caucasus or Asia has
the highest number of local breeds. The dromedary, with most local breeds located in Africa and the
Near and Middle East, and the guinea pig, with most local breeds located in Latin America and the
Caribbean, are exceptions to this pattern. The totals in some categories have fallen, because countries
have corrected their inventories. Tables 2b and 3b, respectively, show, for each region of the world,
the number of reported local breeds of mammalian and avian species that are classified as locally
adapted. The figures in tables 2a and 3a differ only slightly from those in 2b and 3b, respectively. As
described above, local breeds that, at the time the analysis was undertaken, had not been categorized
by National Coordinators were all provisionally assigned to the locally adapted category.

Tables 4a and 5a, respectively, show the number of reported regional transboundary breeds of
mammalian and avian species in each region of the world. For several mammalian species, including
sheep, horses and pigs, Europe and the Caucasus, has the highest number of regional transboundary
breeds. Africa has a relatively large share of regional transboundary breeds in most of these species.
Africa has more regional transboundary breeds of cattle and goats than any other region. Europe and
the Caucasus, however, has by far the highest number of regional transboundary breeds among avian
species.
The existence of significant numbers of regional transboundary breeds has implications for
management and conservation of animal genetic resources, and highlights the need for cooperation at
regional or subregional levels.
Tables 4b to 4d and 5b to 5d, respectively, show the number of reported regional transboundary breeds
of mammalian and avian species in each region of the world that are classified as locally adapted,
mixed and exotic. At this stage, because most national breed populations have not been categorized by
their respective National Coordinators, the figures mainly reflect the assumption that regional
transboundary breeds can be considered to be locally adapted.

Tables 6 and 7, respectively, show the numbers of reported international transboundary mammalian
and avian breeds falling within each of the adaptedness categories. Cattle, sheep, horses and chickens
are the species that have the highest numbers of international transboundary breeds. Around two-thirds
of international transboundary horse and cattle breeds fall within the “mixed” category. Different
national breed populations within these breeds have been allocated to different categories by the
respective National Coordinators. In the case of sheep, the percentage of breeds falling within the
“mixed” category is also quite high, at 58 percent.

IV. Risk status of animal genetic resources
As noted above, since the last status and trends report was prepared, the method for assigning breeds
to risk-status categories has been amended by the introduction of a cut-off point of ten years, beyond
which the risk status of a breed is considered to be unknown if no updated population data have been
reported. The results presented in this section are therefore not directly comparable to those presented
in the Status and trends of animal genetic resources – 20126. Trends based on figures that are
comparable over time are presented in Section V of this report.
A total of 1 458 breeds (17 percent of all breeds including those that are extinct) are classified as being
at risk. The percentage of breeds classified as being of unknown risk status has increased from
34 percent in 2012 to 58 percent in 2014, mainly because of the above-mentioned new calculation
method. The figures present a more realistic picture of the state of data availability than the equivalent
figures did in past reports.
The inner ring of the left hand side of Figure 5 shows that, for mammalian species, the proportion of
breeds classified as at risk is lower overall (16 percent) than for avian species (17 percent). However,
in absolute terms, the number of breeds at risk is higher for mammalian species (955 breeds) than for
avian species (503 breeds). Comparing the right and left-hand side of Figure 5 shows that the vast
majority of breeds at risk and almost all extinct breeds are classified as locally adapted breeds.
Figure 6a presents risk-status data for mammalian species. It can be seen that horse, sheep and cattle
are the mammalian species with the highest number of breeds at risk. However, rabbits (45 percent)
followed by horses (22 percent) and asses (17 percent) are the species that have the highest
proportions of breeds at risk. Figure 6a also shows the large number of breeds for which no risk-status
data are available. The problem is particularly significant in some species – 93 percent for deer breeds,
66 percent for ass breeds and 98 percent for dromedary breeds. This lack of data is a serious constraint
to effective prioritization and planning of breed conservation measures. Cattle are the species with the
highest number of breeds (184) reported as extinct. Large numbers of extinct breeds of sheep (160),
pig (107) and horse (87) are also reported. It should be noted that some breeds may have become
extinct before they were documented. Any such breeds will, clearly, be missing from this analysis.
Figures 6b and 6c present risk-status data for mammalian species, broken down by adaptedness
category (locally adapted and mixed) to provide an example on how such complex data can be
illustrated in future.
Among avian species, chickens have by far the highest number of breeds at risk on a world scale
(Figure 7a). As in the case of mammalian species, there are a large number of breeds for which
population figures are unavailable. Extinct breeds have mainly been reported among chickens. There
are also a few cases among ducks, guinea fowl and turkeys.
Figures 6b and 6c present risk-status data for mammalian species, broken down by adaptedness
category (locally adapted and mixed). Figures 7b and 7c present the equivalent figures for avian
species. Figures 8a and 9a show the distribution of breeds at risk by region for mammalian and avian
species. Figures 8b, 8c, 9b and 9c, split the regional presentations into the locally adapted and mixed
categories.
The regions with the highest proportion of their breeds classified as at risk are Europe and the
Caucasus (31 percent of mammalian breeds and 35 percent of avian breeds) and North America
(16 percent of mammalian breeds). These are the regions that have the most highly specialized
livestock industries, in which production is dominated by a small number of breeds. In absolute terms,
the Europe and the Caucasus region has by far the highest number of at-risk breeds. Despite the
apparent dominance of these two regions, problems in other regions may be obscured by the large
number of breeds with unknown risk status. The new method for calculating risk status (based on the
ten-year cut off point) draws attention to the fact that during the ten years up to June 2014 countries
from Latin America and the Caribbean, the Near and Middle East, North America or the Southwest
Pacific reported almost no population data for any avian breeds. Almost all (except one breed in Latin
America and the Caribbean) of the avian breeds from these regions are therefore classified as being of
unknown risk status. Likewise, for more than 90 percent of Africa’s breeds and more than 80 percent
of Asia’s breeds, the lack of recent population data means that no risk status could be assigned.Figure

Tables 8 and 9 present the number of extinct mammalian and avian breeds by species and region.
Europe and the Caucasus has reported far more extinct mammalian and avian breeds than any other
region – 7 percent of all reported breeds are extinct. The dominance of Europe and the Caucasus in
terms of the number of breeds reported extinct may relate, at least in part, to the relatively advanced
state of breed inventory and monitoring in this region. The year of extinction has been reported for
only 33 percent of extinct breeds (214). Thirty breeds became extinct after 2005 (Table 10). Among
the 565 extinct mammalian breeds, 99 percent are classified as locally adapted breeds. All extinct
avian breeds are classified as locally adapted.

V. Trends in breed status and diversity
Figure 10 presents the data basis for the newly introduced indicator supposed to show the proportion
of the total population accounted for by locally adapted breeds and its trends. For the calculation of
this indicator the sum of population sizes over all locally adapted national breed populations
belonging to a certain species has to be divided by the sum of population seizes built over all national
breed populations (locally adapted and exotic) for the respective species. Generally the lack of
population data for exotic breed populations is even more pronounced than for locally adapted breed
populations and does not allow a meaningful interpretation of this indicator at this stage. The dramatic
decrease in number of animal between the years 2011 and 2012 in Figure 10 is caused by the
intensive uploading activities prior to the first report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic
Resources for Food and Agriculture7 until the year 2001 followed by a lack of updating of population
data especially for exotic breeds afterwards. The lack of updating since 2001 in combination with the
ten year cut-off point becomes visible in the year 2012 were all non updated population sizes were set
to unknown (zero).

2005 to 2014
Previous attempts to summarize global trends in breed risk status have been affected by the
confounding effects of ongoing corrections to breed inventories. The proposals for reducing the effects
of such changes set out in the document Targets and indicators for animal genetic resources8 were
applied in the calculation of the figure presented below. Figure 11shows the trends in genetic erosion
of breeds since the publication of the first report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources
for Food and Agriculture. Since the year 2006 the proportion of breeds classified as at risk increased
from 15 to 17 percent, the breeds classified as not at risk decreased from 21 to 18 percent and the
percentage of breeds reported to be extinct remained stable with 7 percent. The number of breeds
where no risk status can be calculated due to either complete lack of information on population sizes
or lack of updating of population data for a period of more than ten years is with almost 60 percent
very high.

Figure 11. Changes in risk status of breeds from 2006 to 2014
The figures 12a and 12b show the relationship between trends in genetic diversity expressed as
quadratic regression lines and the number of breeds with unknown risk class due to missing
information on population data for a period of at least 10 years. In case of local breeds there is a clear
trend regarding genetic diversity of local breeds: the number of breeds being at risk is increasing over
time while the number of breeds not at risk is decreasing (Fig. 12a). The trends for transboundary
breeds are not that pronounced: however, the number of breeds being not at risk is decreasing while
the number of breeds with unknown risk status increases steadily. The grey charts indicate that the
number of local breeds with reported population data was rather high during the preparation phase for
the first report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture and
decreases since then while the number of transboundary breeds without reported population data in
DAD-IS is increasing over the last years.

VI. Conclusions
During the period between June 2012 and June 2014 the coverage of the Global Databank for Animal
Genetic Resources improved. However, breed-related information remains far from complete. For
almost 60 percent of all reported breeds, risk status is not known because of missing population data or
lack of recent updates. The completeness of data is shown, by country, in Annexes 1 and 2.
Previous attempts to summarize global trends in breed risk status have been affected by the
confounding effects of ongoing corrections to breed inventories. The proposals for reducing the effects
of such changes set out in the document Targets and indicators for animal genetic resources9 were
applied in the calculation of the figures presented in the present report. This allows for the first time a
meaningful interpretation of trends in risk status of breeds showing an increase of breeds being at risk
of extinction over the last ten years. However, the lack of population data hides the real degree of
erosion. National Coordinators also need to enter any historical population data that are available to
them, as this will provide a more complete set of data with which to calculate trends in breed
population size, breed structure and diversity.
The current state of data availability and updating means that it is not possible to draw reliable
conclusions regarding global trends in diversity as represented by the proportion of the total
population accounted for by locally adapted breeds. If future status and trends reports are to provide
meaningful inputs to decision-making in animal genetic resources management, there is an urgent
need for National Coordinators for the Management of Animal Genetic Resources to improve (i) the
completeness and frequency of reporting on the sizes of their national breed populations, including for
the exotic breeds, and (ii) to classify all their national breed populations into adaptedness categories
(locally adapted or exotic).
Furthermore, as cross-bred animals probably represent the majority of domestic animals in many
countries a way to define cross breed populations and to capture the size of national crossbred
populations in DAD-IS needs to be investigated to present a realistic proportion of the total population
accounted for by locally adapted breeds.
Due to the lack of data regarding the adaptedness class of breeds, figures and tables based on this
classification system can only be considered as examples for presenting such type of data in future
reports.

This annex allows countries to view the state of completeness of their breed population data in DAD-
IS. They can also see how their progress in entering population data compares to that of other
countries in their respective regions.
Two graphics are presented for each region. The first shows the number of breeds for which
population data have been recorded and the number of breeds that have been entered into DAD-IS for
which no population data have yet been recorded. The second graphic presents two further measures
of data completeness: the average number of years for which population has been reported per breed
and the “population data index”. The latter relates only to breeds for which some population data have
been entered – it represents the fraction of selected population data fields (population size, number of
breeding females, number of breeding males and the percentage of females bred to males of the same
breed) that contain data, averaged across breeds and years. The figures also show the most recent year
for which population data are available from a given country. Dependent territories are listed below
the respective country.
