20 years of WorldFengur

May 27 2021 | Breeding, General

It is now 20 years that the global database for Icelandic horses – a cooperation project between the Icelandic Government and FEIF – was opened for public use. From the outset, this extensive database was developed to become the essential tool for breeders of the Icelandic horse and to be a key factor in achieving the breeding goal that was set internationally.

The process of registering the data on each horse has been a heavy demand on each of the subscribing FEIF member associations. Outside Iceland registering of horse data in WorldFengur is performed by voluntary enthusiasts. It takes time – but every new day means new horses and new information to WorldFengur.
