Cross-breeding is a process in which indigenous varieties of cattle are crossed by exotic breeds to get a breed which is high yielding. During cross-breeding, the desired characters are taken into consideration. The progeny resulting from cross-breeding contains the desirable traits of both indigenous and exotic breeds. The, progeny should be high yielding, should have early maturity and should be resistant to adverse climatic conditions.
