At the two breeding stations for poultry Middelfart and Strynø having a capacity for 6.000 laying hens and 24.000 broiler chickens respectively I had the possibility to run genetic experiments using a part of the capacity for these purpose and then running the developing of new lines for the poultry breeders in the residual of the capacity during the years 1973 to 1995. This research capacity was used to perform selection experiments and a scientific based development of new breeding methods. After closing the breeding stations in 1992 due to the concentration of breeding companies and the stop of Danish there were established facilities at Research Center Foulum that made it possible to run breeding experiments some of the activities was continued . Has teached breeding and genetic in poultry at The Royal Veterinarian and Agricultural University in Copenhagen on each of the courses "Almen Husdyravl" and "Fjerkræets Avl og Ernæring" for students in Agronomi and the course "Husdyravl og genetic" for veterinarian students each year during the years 1973 to 2008. To each cource were given 2-4 lections followed by 3-4 hours of training. The last 15 years the teaching was based on the chapter Fjerkræavl. / Sørensen, Poul. I: Husdyravl - teori og praksis. / red. Lars Gjøl Christensen. 2. udg. DSR Forlag, 2003. s. 131-165 Has during the years 2000-2003 teached 3 batches of 29 MSc. Students from developing countries in the two year study "Rural Poultry Production and Health" with the courses "Poultry Breeding and Genetics" and "Breeds and Breeding" from which two compendium were worked out on respectively 89 and 68 pages. |
