The document, in particular, defines such concepts as 'breeding products' and 'breeding value', 'pedigree animal' and "'breeding work'. The document also states that the EAEU countries provide for the exchange of information on breeding animals and breeding achievements, including in electronic form.
The implementation of the agreement will ensure the growth of genetic potential, the increase in production volumes, compliance with international quality assessment systems.
