Hybrid breed of cattle:
The exotic breeds of cattle are the breeds that are imported from different regions across the globe. They are high milching animals giving over 7 to 8 liters of milk per day.
But, still they are hybridized with local breeds of cattle. The reasons are:
- Hybridization increases the resistance of the cattle to indigenous pests and other infectious agents.
- Most of the exotic breeds come from colder climate, which is why they are unable to thrive here.
- Most of the exotic breeds of cattle have different food habits. Hybridization eliminates this problem .
