  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • For Many Years, the Conventional Wisdom on French-Bred Percheron
    by Virginia Kouyoumdjian, France or many years, the conventional wisdom on French-bred FPercheron horses has been that they are big, lumbering crea- tures with too much bone and no gait, products of a sad focus on breeding horses for the meat market. There is no doubt that this came very close to being the truth, although it never was the entire truth. Excellent bloodlines and outstanding horses have always been bred in France but they were rather thin on the ground for a long while. It was after the Second World War that things began to turn sour for the Percheron in France. To start with, there was very little good breeding stock left. A few breeders had managed to hide their best stallions, but they were few and far between. And to make matters worse, tractors took over farming in a big way and the draft horse no longer had a use on the farm. At the same time, buses had replaced coaches which had mainly been pulled by Percherons. In a harsh economic climate, old-time breeders had to face the reality that nobody wanted their horses anymore. Fortunately, there was an outlet that was thriv- ing: the meat market. Although the consumption of horse meat had not tradi- tionally been part of the French diet, it had gained in popularity as a cheaper and nutritious alternative to beef. It is widely said and probably true that the meat market saved not just the Percheron breed but all the nine breeds of draft horse in France. The problem initially was that the Percheron was no longer the perfect meat horse, having over the ages, developed the finer lines and bone structure of a working horse.

Cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, poultry and other livestock have been an essential part of agriculture and our history as a nation. With the change of agriculture from a way of life to a successful industry, we are losing our agricultural roots. Although we descend from a nation of farmers, few of us can name more than a handful of livestock breeds that are important to our production of food and fiber.
