The growing population of the Earth, the fight against climate change, and the focus on environmental aspects pose complex tasks for both theorists and practitioners. It is necessary to ensure the nutrition of the population of countries with growing populations - mainly African and Asian - while reducing the impact on the environment. The science of genetics can make a major contribution to making agricultural production sustainable, identifying breeds that are better adapted to a changing climate and have less impact on the environment during breeding.However, for the practical application of modern results of genetics, it is necessary to familiarize them with producers in the agricultural sphere as soon as possible. Modern management methods and certain organizations that keep in touch with producers, livestock breeders, the government launching support projects, and academia can help in this case. In many European countries, there are formal contacts between breeding organizations, chambers representing the interests of agriculture, and public/state institutions. There are also examples of scientific results being disseminated to producers through this channel. These best practices are important for countries such as Indonesia to learn about, where organizing breeders and providing them with scientific results and effective management methods is still a challenge for the future.
