The mission of the program is to coordinate the availability, conservation and utilization of animal and aquatic genetic resources in order to provide optimum access to desirable genes and gene complexes that will contribute to the future food and fiber supply.

The primary species in this program are beef and dairy cattle, swine, poultry, sheep, goats, and aquatic forms. This program is under development.
