The Haras Nationaux is the national public administrative body responsible for the regulation and administration of breeding of horses and donkeys in France. It administers twenty-two regional Haras, or horse-breeding centres. It was a branch of the French ministry of agriculture from 1870 until 1999, when it became independent.[1] In 2010, together with the École nationale d'équitation, the national riding school, it became part of the new Institut Français du Cheval et de l’Equitation.[2]
