Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Huaxi cattle are a local breed in Xinjiang, China. This breed has gained increasing attention from farmers and breeders for its dual-purpose capabilities in both meat and dairy production. Beyond this, these animals are highly adapted to extreme environmental conditions, making them unique and valuable for livestock-enhancing programs and the food industry. To maximize economic potential, effective...
