There are more ways than one to improve your breeding herd, and each is just as important as the other:
- Good herd health program
- Excellent nutritional program
- Breeding management (preg testing, semen testing, shortened breeding and calving period, etc.)
- Strict culling management
- Select for desirable traits for low cost and effective cow-calf management
Feeding is the fundamental part of improving cattle breeding. Improving the herd's overall nutrition with better pasture management and a great mineral program is a part of improving cattle breeding for both cows and bulls. Rations should be based on the cow's needs, but also on what nature can provide if you are raising cattle according to Nature's laws.

Selective breeding is done in cattle because cattlemen and breeders with their cattle herds and/or breeds they care for and manage are always improving the genetics and productivity of their animals. Every breed has its faults, so cattlemen and farmers are always selecting animals to improve the cowherd and culling out those that are not improving the herd.
