MORPHOCONSTITUTIONAL CRITERIA FOR ASSESSING MILK PERFORMANCE IN CATTLE OF THE BLACK-AND-WHITE HOLSTEINIZED BREED

On the basis of complex zooveterinary, anatomical, macromorphometric, sonographic, viscometric studies, a scientific justification for assessing the milk performance in cows of the black-and-white holsteinized breed is presented. Morphoconstitutional criteria for assessing the productive qualities of animals have been determined. An algorithm for assessing the state of the mammary gland in cows of the black-and-white holsteinized breedhas been developed, which is basicfor prognosis of milk performance in animals.
