Abstract

Summary It is evident that since the end of the war and during the post-war reconstruction period Russian livestock specialists and farmers have made considerable progress in increasing the number of cattle kept for milk, the production per cow, and total output. At the same time, they have greatly improved the feeding and management conditions under which the cows are kept. There is every indication that this progress will continue. The Russians place great store in developing animals particularly adapted to specific environmental or regional conditions. They do not hesitate to mix breeds to attain this end. They attach little importance to frills, rather, they concentrate on utility items that will move them fastest to their goal of outdoing the United States in meat and milk production.
