Genetic potential of milk productivity of black-and-white cows depending on selection and management

Abstract

Currently an increasing attention is paid to breeding animals ensuring the greatest genetic progress of populations in livestock productivity, i.e. stud bulls. Hence, the study of the realization degree of genetic potential of productivity of dairy cattle with different ecogenesis in the conditions of industrial and traditional technology of milk production seems quite relevant. The study revealed that the degree of realization of genetic potential of stud bulls in traditional (tied-up system) and industrial (cubicle system) technology is different.
