Some of the local landraces of cattle become competitive on the dairying system if husbadry practice is enhanced. Please share you thought and experiences.
First - I believe raising local breeds of cows is beneficial in keeping genetic resources from extinction. Second - local breeds need a long breeding program to ensure that this program is genetically effective. Third - it is necessary to improve managerial conditions and care for the local cattle, to eliminate environmental impacts as much as possible. Finally - the application of genetic selection to improve the productivity of cows...
The efficiency of indigenous cattle can be progressed in the event that we improve the management system. They require good nourishment, a good housing system, and well-being care to express their full hereditary potential. in reality, indigenous cattle highly adapt to poor situations this assumption may affect indigenous cattle, not to express their full hereditary potential.
A good and standard management and routine practices, with a balance ration would help bring out the best in any specified local breed of cow, but won't compete with exotic breeds because of genetic endowment and makeup. The best a local breed of cow could offer under improved management system, may not be competitively compared to exotic breeds.

Yes but insignificant. The native cows with low genetic production potential cannot expect them to produce more despite improved feeding and management. They will stop producing more on attaining their full blown genetic potential. It may not be economically viable to feed native cows high protein diet, they cannot digest and waste it as bypass protein. You need to know the maximum production potential of your local landrace breed and develop the feeding and management regime accordingly. Takele Taye Desta
It's important to raise native cows as a genetic resource .at the main time selection to improve such cows it take long time and crossing with exotic is a short way improving management and particularly nutrition is important because the heritability is near 25
