Best Answer

An advantage of selective breeding is that producers can produce cows or bulls with characteristics that improve the breed or the herd itself, or produce more income for the producer when calves are sold. Selective breeding means herd improvement, on things such as milking ability, mothering ability, carcass quality, forage utilization efficiency, calving ease, stayability, birth weights, weaning weights, etc.

Selective breeding is a good thing. You artificially breed two animals for a specific trait. If you wanted a Copica, you would breed a Corgi and a Cockapoo.

Hope this helps! :)

Generally it's good, but you have to be a little careful not to breed in undesirable traits along with the ones you want.
