MITAT VALDES, Alina. Water Buffaloes in Cuba II. Herd Evolution, Adaptation, and Current State. Rev. prod. anim. [online]. 2022, vol.34, n.2, pp. 26-38. Epub 30-Ago-2022. ISSN 2224-7920.
Background:
The introduction of buffaloes in Cuba is relatively recent; however, it has been established under several constraints, mainly cognitive ones.
Aim:
. To conduct a detailed analysis of the introduction of Buffaloes in Cuba, and their adaptation to the environmental conditions and current development.
Development:
The study reports the evolution of herds since the arrival of the swamp subspecies and its current situation.
Conclusions:
The general results indicate that the adaptation of buffaloes to the Cuban environment is a reality; however, to increase and maintain the productivity of this species it is necessary to implement a program based on new management and technological approaches whose guidance stems from the closed-cycle production and includes a coherent genetic breeding project.
