East African cattle
East African cattle are a diverse group of cattle breeds originating from the East African region, including countries like Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania. They are known for their adaptability to local conditions, such as drought and diseases, and are integral to the livelihoods of many pastoralist communities. Some notable breeds, like Boran and Ankole, are valued for their milk, meat, and resilience. These cattle also play a crucial cultural and economic role, often being symbols of wealth and status within communities. Their unique traits make them well-suited for both subsistence farming and commercial agriculture in the region.
