Dual cows are cows that are suitable for two purposes instead of one: meat and milk; milk and draft, or meat and draft. Most often dual purpose refers to those kinds of cattle who can give milk and meat like Dexters and Red Polls. Draft cattle also called oxen; these are animals that are trained to be used to pull carts or ploughs or other equipment.
