	abstract = {Masked by the short-term influences of under or over-production   at national level, concerns about the quality and hygiene of animal   products and fears regarding dietary influences on human health, long-   term projections of what will be expected of the pastoral animal   industries are difficult to make. Concerns about the welfare of animals   in intensive systems coupled with the political changes taking place in   Russia and Eastern Europe are likely to swing animal production more   towards pastoral systems. The removal of large quantities of fat from   the food chain is likely to become a permanent feature. So too is the   trend for a more even flow of high-quality products on to the market.   In meeting these goals the role of the current biotechnological   revolution, both directly in primary animal production, and indirectly   through its contribution to the animal-product and food-processing   industries, will be essential. We can not afford intellectual   scientific complacency in a world where famine could, however remotely,   become a truly global phenomenon. It is against this background that   those aspects of the pastoral animal industries that currently limit   production are viewed and the opportunities for implementing new   technologies outlined.     },
