The situation of our race ³ n is a concern ...
Posted in Paso Fino by Romualdo
Sometimes I wonder if the Purists have true awareness of the situation ³ n of our race ... honestly I think not. This worries me because if you know where we are, Why, How will we know where we should go? PermÃtanme be presenting some ideas, maybe handle can understand a little better what I'm trying to say ...
First of all, know the quantity that counts cigars with our race. We suggest a figure: 12.000 ... Ã ³ Ã ³ 6.000 ... 3.000 ... may I ask you, A Do you have an idea of four nts are there?
Sega º n would appear from the records, each year ± or enroll fewer than 100 new ones. The reality is that the average number is about 60 new enrollees each year copies ± o. But let's be generous: if signed 100 copies each year new ± or the last 15 year I have only ± 1.500 copies! If we adim copies ± year over year ± 15 years, as our equine population Provision must be ³ n from 2,000 to 2.500 copies ... and this pasofinista friend is worrying!
On the other hand, we refer regularly to the Paso Fino horse ± o Pure Puerto Ricans as a race ... our race horse auta ctona ³ ... Ã º nica race in the world ... But What qua © base our claim? The reality is that our race has not been formally accepted as such by any World Organization. Â © qua Do you know this? ... Because we have never asked!
The organization that owed may validate our claim is the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations), but not enough to get a little speech homeland ³ tico saying that our Paso Fino Pure is a race auta ³ ctona of Puerto Rico and we are proud of it. This is not enough, we have to prove our words, we must show the evidence confirming the identity à º nica of our horses.
To this end, the UPR in Utuado has just begun a study genetic © tico that, among other things, aims to identify genetic markers that separate and © ticos distinguish the Paso Fino too pure s horse breeds in the world. This study, which count with the participation of Dr. Gus Cothran n, also © n provide the breeders with new tools to help make better na crosses.
Dr. Cothran, for those who do not remember, is a renowned geneticist at the University of Texas ³ presented as part of the forum that offered ³ Utuado University in April 2007. During this forum, Dr. Cothran said:
â € œThe ± Paso Fino Puerto Ricans or appears to be one of the most pure examples s blood of the old world in the new world. The amount is small enough to and Provision must be ± ³ n from a concern about the point of view of the preservation ³ n. I am very active and committed ³ n Conservation of genetic © tica € caballo.â
The cornerstone that unifies these three points - the lack of Statistics, the genetic map © tico and n The inclusion of our race in the FAO - Developed by n is a census of our population ³ n equina.
A Census we ayudarÃa to know, first, four nts copies have, CUA many of these do this n of reproductive age, Which are the lines prevailing Where to lie, etc ... only handle we can determine if the same is
in a situation ³ n enda © mica, which must permit us to identify federal aid to the preservation ³ n of the same.
Moreover, this will proporcionarÃa Paso Fino Pure stats as Agricultural industry, Not only will such as parenting, but four jobs created between assemblers nts, veterinarians, blacksmiths, Agricultural houses, shops of tools, food distributors and tedders.
The Census is a project that is being submitted to the Secretary of Agriculture as one of the priorities to be addressed by the new Director of the Office of Paso Fino. Hopefully this director to be appointed pra ³ ximamente and has the experience and knowledge of our race to carry out this assignment.
Return to the beginning of this theme: the situation of our race ³ n is a concern ...
Perhaps this is why I get frustrated when I see good bellies empty spaces left behind because there are no customers to buy their crÃas. U mediasangre others who produce copies instead of sowing his seed on the Purism. But I confess something more s this I am disappointed to see breeders that instead of encouraging the preservation ³ n of what we have, trying to reduce our race only a few lines arbitrary without realizing that looking for that â € œexcelenciaâ € what they do is push s more a situation more sa ³ n critic of what will be more s Difficult recover after © s.
This owed may improve if we were united © branches to promote our race ... to open new markets, same here on the island and abroad. Asa we can increase our production of copies n Cigars and get better value for them.
Unfortunately, the Paso Fino Pure has a leading cancer ± os year Ndolo death threat, and we refuse to take medicine that can heal us. I mean the lack of unity. © Not only you, but I think more than one island ridÃculo 100 x 35a € ™ we have three entities (and fourth that fails ³ boot), and not even a question of doing something for the race.
Let's be honest, the entities have been reduced to small committee © s ± os to organize competitions ... but the race - which is fighting for, defend, strengthen and develop - leads guests' © rfana by year ± os.
Purism need to be united in a common cause No, you need to leave atra s personal differences, jealousy, grudges, false pretexts to impose wills ... Purism need from you: your desire to see our race improves, your commitment to preserve it and your effort for this to become a reality.
IS THE FIRST TIME ALL I agree with you your argument. BLACK OTHER THAN THE OTHER OWNERS NOT WANT GOOD LOOKS pimp FOSTER PURE BREED OF HORSES NEED THOSE WHO HAVE OLD HORSES CASTADORES FINE AND GOOD come to light. NEED NOT BE WRITING YOU SLEEP. Or we need new leadership these nominations? WHAT TO DO?
 At last we agree on almost everything! ... "Almost all" because I happen to nominacià ³ n ... Caney, Ringtones know that even if you want, I have the time ... but keep doing what we can from this corner on the internet ...
Speaking of something else, have you seen Buenaventura in these days? ... Andrà © s was begun ³ again last week, but I could not go to see ... The Next Tuesday I'm taking a boy on the farm to see few things we have to arrange and leverage to reach out to the stables ... if you go before me and you see, call me!!
I dare to give up to 25 dollars for the mare but it's your decision. unfortunately we are all busy but your shows more leadership than most. forgives 25 are for the mother who had not studied it by the parent 14
If you roll a CAVALGAR IN DAY TO YOU NARANJITO surprised at the number of good horses that exist when looking up has more lines than any PURITAN RACING
Thanks for the offer ... but I give less than 30, is the grandfather, who tena 4 white legs!
When we see the horses being used to walk n found many animals ± enrrazados The owners that I never bothered to register ... so with the Pure with Colombians ... this is a shame because once you pull these animals the pool genetic © tico, after © s is more s Difficult to put their papers in order ... especially when they have more s than a generation n without registering ... but How to make people understand the importance of registering all animals ...
My opinion with respect to tema.Creo which is the lack of unity and would like some claim to know more than others on the subject here is the Paso Fino Pure Prtqueno.Primero nothing would be necessary to unite all the directors of these entities and each file roughness achieved between themselves and agree to achieve focus on a single target (PURE PUERTO RICAN PASO FINO). Like they should do horse owners, fitters, blacksmiths, ect .. I mention this because every competition that I see disunity and non-constructive criticism of each of these people rather than unite and share experiences and techniques to make the Pure Puerto Rican Paso Fino world's best and leave the disunity and conflict among ourselves . Not have realized that when our horses go to and a union to compete among themselves, if you look they all give their best to give the best exhibition that puedadn provide, the pride they have each of these copies. It's like if they had agreed to hacerlo.Se look at each other and try to give the best of themselves for the public to take pleasure and enjoy seeing them, behave in a gentlemanly way so I would say that actually were reported for so do it ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ....! What is missing is UNION ... ... ...! Romualdo ... .... If you can conquer that union ... ... ... ..!
Romualdo, it is simple people have simply forgotten the value d d race pure fine pitch here, I m talking of course I have 30 years-old, and since I'm los13 ompitiendo years, and you and the people q is in this sport, with the passing of the years I have realized is q names, is the reality. THERE q find a way that the horse does not sin q in the ring that takes the prize. There q be just that first and last name is what takes away the desire d follow in the tracks. Q I hope you understand me, but let Pallas thanks!!
Rafael ... the problem of "PAN" in the judgments is not new, the contrariom remember when I was Nià ± o hear my grandfather complaining about the same things that we complain today ... but on the other hand, we must accept that in the last one ± os, using the judges of the Association of Judges, the judgments have improved ...
In your comment you mention that the copy Provision must win at the track does not sin ... it need not necessarily be correct ... in a competition we are evaluating the arrangement of the horse, but their ability to set the pace of Paso Fino ... of course, for this º n is evaluated many things, including the arrangement ... but that's not the only one judging criteria ...
If we review the regulations of skills found that there are certain offenses less serious than detract points to a copy (they are penalized) and others that are serious offenses for which the copy should be excused from the competition ... year º n ASA, a copy owed may be so year group than n º committing less serious and losing scores ³ n directed, even above being too s copies and winning the competition ...
I think one of the things we have to do is educate ± The owners of the horses ... I remember that I have a horse turns me on automatically an expert on Paso Fino ... we have to know the rules and judging process for when having one of our horses on the track to watch the competition in an objective manner ... recognizing whether ours is truly the best example, or is someone else who deserves the award ...
Romualdo greetings hize you grab a few days the comment number six and I hope you answer me if it's true what they say or if there is something wrong. I await your reply ... ... ... ...! Greetings from Guayama ... ... ... ... ...!
Paul ... the problem of unity in Purism is the raaz of all our problems ... it is not not recognize it, not think there is a purist not dà © behalf of the Division between different groups ... Not only will the entities, but between individual horses!
Look, if you look in the archives can find an article they wrote in June 2007 ... if instead of article was a colt, to be mounted almost estarÃa! The sad thing is that through © s of the year ± os have been initiatives to good plan on seeking unity ... and all have found Quà © what motivates many of our "Leaders" is not the good of the race but their personal agendas ...
Year No. n loop, I want to finish the comment with a note of hope ... AA No. No, at this time, despite many setbacks, there are purists who believe that unity is possible ... and not s © ... maybe is © cooking something aha!
Romualdo ... ... Greetings again with respect to the June 2007 article, very good Article had not had a chance to read it.
