Dr. Carlos A. Gimenez Diaz was appointed Coordinator of Ministry of Agriculture, DIPA and Barrerito Ranch in 2001 and was trained in Japan for 3 months course on Breeding Technologies in Cattle in 2003. He was invited as researcher by Ataturk University, Turkey and worked in research and development projects between 2004-2008. He has participated in numerous national and international conferences as a speaker, invited speaker, and moderator. He has carried out teaching activities in the context of training courses for technicians operating in the cattle, sheep and goat fields.
Animal breeding is a field related to a whole range of biotechnologies. Biotechnology is a modern technological tool enhance the efficiency and profitability of livestock reproduction, production, and product quality.
Information technologies (IT) are a unity of technical, software, intellectual support to provide timely and high-quality analysis of the accumulated information. Without IT, predicting ability of animal production will be not a high degree of certanity. The rate of genetic progress is maximized when reproductive biotechnology and information technology combined synergistically in a structured breeding program with a clear breeding objective. Efficiency in animal production is defined as achieving maximum productivity with minimum waste, or in other words, producing more product with the same or even fewer resources. As being a member of research team leaded by Prof Dr Ebru Emsen, I acitively took a place of applying biotechnological tools for genetic improvement of sheep population in a large scale.
At the present stage of development of livestock enterprises, one of the conditions for their successful functioning is information support, which includes the collection and processing of information necessary for making informed management decisions. An automated process control system in livestock farms shoul be begin to use the various available capabilities of information technologies. At this point, ErGen successifully addresses the adoption of precision livestock farming (PLF) technologies in sheep farming.
