So they can enhance the best characteristics. For example, they may only breed the more "beefy" cows that produce more beef than the others. By breeding the beefy cows only, the offspring are likely to acquire the proper set of genes that yield a beefy cow, thus improving the farmer's efficiency and productivity.
