Zebu breeds were born to be genetically improved in Brazil and are now ready to meet all the demands of the world`s livestock. The bovine herd of Brazil has already passed 210 million head and more than 80 percent of this volume is made up of animals with zebu genetics. The associations that represent breeders of zebu breeds develop studies and promote breeds around the world. Brazilian zebu animals are efficient in grazing or in confinement and therefore indicated to the most diverse management models. The eight zebu breeds present in the Brazilian Cattle Project are extremely efficient and show all their meat and milk production potential with the economic viability and environmental sustainability
The 86th ExpoZebu will be held between April 25 and May 3, 2020, at Parque Fernando Costa, in Uberaba (MG). The Brazilian Association of Zebu Breeders announced changes to the ExpoZebu 2020 Regulation. The changes were presented and discussed during a meeting between members of the ABCZ board of directors and representatives of all promotional associations of the Zebu breeds.
Marcelo Ártico, Director of Relations with ABCZ Promotional Associations, considers that the elaboration of the regulation in a democratic and broad way as it has been conducted is healthy and contributes to the aggrandizement and strengthening of all Zebu breeds, “The contributions of promotional associations bring, for ABCZ, the most sensitive perception of the technical moment of each of the races”, Director added.
