NATIVE breeds are the “Swiss army knife of equines” and calls have been made to help promote their versatility.

The Rare Breeds Survival Trust (RBST) held a webinar on 7 September to discuss findings from the first year of its equine conservation project.

The aim is to “significantly improve” the ability to support breed societies and breeders in the conservation status of native equine breeds.
