cattle breeds
Types of cows
Cattle breeds are the distinct varieties of domesticated cattle developed through selective breeding for specific traits such as meat production, milk yield, or draft work.
Common beef breeds include Angus, Hereford, and Charolais, while Holstein and Jersey are prized for dairy.
Breeds vary considerably in size, coloring, temperament, and climate adaptation.
The ranch specializes in heritage cattle breeds.
Regional breeds often reflect centuries of local agricultural needs.
