Cattle Breed Catalogue (222)
A working list of 222 cattle names from India and around the world, for research and reference. Only names marked "Registered" are officially registered breeds; the others are research candidates or reference names still under review.
- Registered (ICAR-NBAGR) Officially registered with ICAR-NBAGR, India’s breed registration authority.
- Research candidate A local population named in research. It may not be a distinct registered breed; identity and area still need confirmation.
- Reference name, not verified A name taken from international or historical catalogues for reference. Not individually verified by GauBase.
