La raza Brahman y la Importancia de su Cruzamiento- TvAgro por Juan Gonzalo Angel Restrepo

Twitter @juangangel In the next episode of Field Work, we will be in the municipality of Caucasia, in the department of Antioquia, at the San Rafael cattle ranch with Mr. Humberto Espinosa, an important breeder of the Brahman breed and one of the pioneers in crossbreeding this important breed and genetic improvement in the country. He will tell us part of the history of the beginnings of the San Rafael cattle ranch and the management of the animals during this time of quarantine. The Brahman cattle breed originates from the Zebu cattle originally brought to the United States from India. It has been extensively crossed with Bos taurus, the European cattle. Both are members of the bovine family. The Brahman is characterized by a hump on its back and long, floppy ears. The most common colors are white, gray, and red. The Brahman has a remarkable capacity for adaptation and survival. They can thrive on unsuitable pastures and are highly resistant to insect pests, parasites, diseases, and extreme climates. Brahman cattle can travel great distances to obtain water. They thrive where other types of cattle can barely survive. Source https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahman...)
