ADAPTATION TO THE ENVIRONMENT OF RUSTIC ANIMAL BREEDS IN BANAT WITH ECO-ECONOMIC IMPACT

Summary/Abstract: During the 19th and the 20th centuries, they developed in the Banat of Temeswar animal breeds with economic performances comparable to those of other breeds in Europe. Traditionally, they also breed animal breeds and populations developed in Transylvania, a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic historical region that resembles the Banat of Temeswar very much from this point of view. Some of the rustic breeds from the Banat of Temeswar or from Transylvania are economically behind other specialised breeds. These rustic breeds are, in exchange, well adapted to the areas and they have genes that endow them with particular disease-resistance. Reform of farm support policies in OECD countries is a welcome step which has led to a decline in the aggregate trade distortion coefficient from 0.96 in 1986 to 0.74 in 2007. Climate change and increased biofuel production represent major risks for long-term food security. Although countries in the Southern hemisphere are not the main originators of climate change, they may suffer the greatest share of damage in the form of declining yields and greater frequency of extreme weather events. Nowadays a sustainable economy must become rural, based on Agrifood Biodiversity. Bioeconomy and Eco-Economy scientifically applied to the rural economy, in the context of a sustainable rural development, the possibility exists to issue the following tentative terms for consideration in the future: a. Bioeconomic sustainable development of the rural areas; b.Eco-Economic sustainable development of the agrifood production; c. Eco-Bioeconomic sustainable development of the agrifood green power.
