Livestock herds can be significantly improved by introducing high-quality breeding stock that is well-suited to the specific environmental and climatic conditions of the region. Selecting animals with desirable traits, such as hardiness, disease resistance, and productivity, ensures that the herd can thrive and maintain overall health. By carefully evaluating local resources, forage availability, and management practices, farmers can optimise their breeding programs to produce livestock that not only meets the demands of their market but also contributes to the sustainability of the farming operation.
