Description
The problem of providing people with food remains relevant in connection with the growth of the world's population. According to statistics, by the 21st century, the production of all types of food increased by more than 20%, while at the same time, the consumption of food products per capita increased by only 6%. In Russia, the production of food products, including dairy products and beef, is not growing at an insufficient pace. In this regard, in order to stabilize and develop the livestock industry in our country, it is important to improve the material and technical base for transferring it to the intensive path of development - maximum production with the lowest labor and material costs. Based on the achievements of scientific and technological progress and a systematic approach to the production of high-quality products, an intensive direction in the livestock industry should be based, the use of highly efficient milk production technologies, based on the achievements of science and technology, and the management of cost-effective dairy cattle breeding. Of particular strategic importance is the effective improvement of the breeding qualities of cattle and the creation of conditions for the formation and effectiveness of the manifestation of genetic capabilities in animals. Currently, the problem in the livestock sector in Russia is the insufficient provision of the feed base and the introduction of rations in the technology that are adequate to the needs of highly productive animals. Statistics show that in the Russian Federation the manifestation of the genetic potential of livestock is only 60-70%. To solve this problem, fodder production should be improved; the existing set of measures should be effectively used in the development of progressive methods of forage preparation and feeding rationing, taking into account the physiology of animals. Livestock farmers of PJSC "Rodina" of the Kanevsky district of the Krasnodar region, having the status of a breeding plant for cattle breeding of the Holstein breed, reached rather high indicators for improving the genotype of dairy cattle and the effectiveness of its manifestation
