Yesterday,Today and Tomorrow of Dairy Goat Breeding
This article reviews the historical development of the dairy goat breeding industry domestically and internationally by tracing the breeding process of high-yielding dairy goats from four continents(Europe,Africa,America,and Oceania).Through a comparative analysis of breeding systems and breeding technologies,the development status of the dairy goat seed industry is discussed both domestically and internationally.The article analyzes the problems that restrict the development of China's dairy goat breeding industry:the imperfect breeding system,insufficient application of new technologies,weak foundation for performance measurement,and insufficient attention to excellent local breed resources.It is proposed that by establishing a modern dairy goat breeding system,enhancing research on breeding technology,and improving methods for measuring production performance,as well as increasing the innovative utilization of germplasm resources,the development of the dairy goat breeding industry in China can be promoted.Aims to provide guidance for innovating the dairy goat breeding industry in China.
