Cattle breeds

Cattle breeds are different groups within the bovine species, each with unique traits such as size, coat color, milk production, growth rate, and adaptability to environments. Some breeds, like Holstein, are renowned for high milk output, while others, like Angus, are preferred for beef quality. Breeds develop through selective breeding to optimize specific characteristics for, say, dairy or meat production. Recognizing these distinctions helps farmers choose the best cattle for their purposes and regional conditions, ensuring efficient and sustainable livestock management.
