Abstract
"Looking back into the Future" a quote from Heinz Lohmann (1901-1975) the founder of Lohmann Tierzucht (1956) which today is part of one of the two world wide operating and dominating poultry breeding empires; it is now owned by another German family owned company, the EW Gruppe. While I have never met Mr Lohmann I benefitted from his generosity as I was able to attend an international training course presented in Germany in 1978 by Prof John James (University of New South Wales) entitled "Comparison of theory and experimental results in quantitative genetics". The course was strongly supported by Lohmann Tierzucht at the time and the two brothers who took over the Lohmann operations have later set up a foundation in his name which is supporting in various ways research into agriculture and food production.
