Laboratory of Dairy Cattle Breeding
The laboratory was established in January 2021 on the basis of the laboratory of providing in milk and beef production. Its creation was due to close cooperation of the Institute of Pig Breeding and Agricultural Research of the NAAS with the research farms of the State Enterprise "DH named after 9 Sichnya", the State Enterprise "DH named after the Decembrists", the State Enterprise "DH Stepne" of the Institute of Pig Breeding and Agro-Industrial Production and the need to develop dairy cattle breeding as a priority direction for the development of the livestock industry of Ukraine.
