Szarvasmarhákat

Szarvasmarhákat, a Hungarian term, translates to cattle in English. Cattle are domesticated bovine animals commonly raised for their meat, milk, and hides. They are members of the genus Bos, with the most common species being Bos taurus. Historically, cattle have played a crucial role in human civilization, serving as a source of food, labor, and even currency.

Different breeds of cattle have been developed over centuries to suit various climates and purposes. Dairy breeds, such as Holsteins and Jerseys, are selectively bred for high milk production. Beef breeds, like Angus and Hereford, are raised for their meat quality and growth rates. Dual-purpose breeds offer both meat and milk.

The farming of cattle, known as husbandry or ranching, involves providing them with food, water, shelter, and veterinary care. They are typically herbivores, feeding on grass, hay, and grains. Cattle can live in herds and play a significant role in agricultural economies worldwide. Their byproducts are used in numerous industries, further highlighting their importance to human society.
