Obtaining the best quality meat thanks to the introduced innovative methods of cattle breeding and generating regional food products and semi-finished products with unique, health-promoting properties, recognizable in Poland and around the world, made of beef from farms in Lower Silesia by developing and implementing a significantly improved product (1), technology (1), methods of organization (1).

1. A new model of meadow and pasture production, taking into account the breeding specificity of individual farms and the prevailing local/atmospheric conditions in the Kłodzko Valley, which will consist in the renovation of meadows and pastures, 2. Improved reproduction techniques taking into account "pure breeds" and commercial breeds in individual farms, correlated with the model business breeders. 3. New methods of organizing cattle breeding, assuming an increase in the quality and quantity of breeding animals with the simultaneous improvement of infrastructural conditions (increase in livestock productivity), 4. Information and education activities of breeders (meetings, training, issuing materials). Specificity of the main results of the project implementation: 1. Renovation of meadows and pastures will restore their biodiversity while creating a food base for cattle of a quality and efficiency sufficient for the needs of a given farm, without the need to provide fodder from outside. 2. The application of innovative techniques of assisted reproduction (ART) to breeding practice will allow obtaining, within a short time, production- and genetically unified offspring with the highest breeding value, omitting generational breeding work and obtaining high indicators of functional characteristics of cattle, e.g. longevity, disease resistance and good feed conversion to increase weight gain. 3. New methods of organization will allow to optimize the breeding process and improve the quality of meat.
