Answer:
The method of cross-breeding is widely used to improve cattle breeds. Cross-breeding two good cattle varieties will lead to a new, improved variety.
Explanation:
Crossbreeding:
- This is the process of crossing recessive traits with dominant traits to produce the best possible traits.
- It improves the quality of cattle breeds.
- This is the result of several scientific techniques.
- It is the production of offspring by mating two purebred individuals of different breeds, varieties or species.
- Crossing two good breeds of cattle results in a new, improved breed.
- MOET (Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology) methods have been used effectively to increase herd numbers in a short period of time, producing high milk producing females and high quality beef cattle.
- In addition, careless crossbreeding can lead to low quality animals and weaken the purebred genome.
Crossbreeding is beneficial in livestock improvement in the following ways:
- Crossbred animals help to increase milk production, growth rate and total animal protein production than conventional animals.
- Diversity in cattle and other livestock is known to increase production efficiency and can reduce the amount of resources and inputs that farmers need to invest in livestock production.
- They are also more resistant to various diseases than ordinary breeds.
