breeding programs
Managed animal reproduction
Breeding programs are organized efforts to produce animals or plants with desired traits through controlled reproduction.
Conservation breeding programs work to preserve endangered species, often in zoos or botanical gardens: The panda breeding program has increased wild populations.
Agricultural breeding programs develop livestock or crops with improved yield, disease resistance, or other valuable characteristics.
