Livestock Breeding Programs

Livestock breeding programs are strategic efforts to improve the quality of farm animals like cattle, sheep, or pigs. By carefully selecting animals with desirable traits—such as higher milk production, better growth rate, or disease resistance—breeders mate the best individuals to pass those traits to future generations. These programs help enhance productivity, health, and adaptability of livestock, ensuring better yields and sustainability. They often involve record-keeping, genetic testing, and planned mating to achieve specific breeding goals efficiently over time.
