The breeding program of Latxa breed [PDF]

Biotechnology in Animal Husbandry, 2007
The present paper describes the breeding program of Latxa breed in Spain. Latxa?s breeding program has been on-going since 1984 and it is focused on increasing milk yield. As a consequence of its implementation, an annual genetic improvement of 3% in milk yield has obtained. Currently, new traits are being considered in the selection breeding goal.
