The Brazilian cow, also known as the Nelore breed, is one of the most common breeds of cattle in Brazil. They are characterized by their large, muscular bodies with short legs, humped shoulders, and drooping ears. These cows are raised primarily for their beef, but they are also used for milk and leather production.
Brazil is one of the largest beef producers and exporters in the world, and the Nelore breed has played a significant role in the country's meat industry. The breed is known for its adaptability to Brazil's tropical climate and is resistant to many diseases and parasites.
Nelore cows typically have a lifespan of 15-20 years and can weigh up to 1500 pounds. They are usually raised on large ranches that provide them with plenty of grazing land and water sources. The cows feed on grass, hay, and other vegetation, and their meat is known for its distinct flavor and tenderness.
In recent years, Brazil has faced criticism for deforestation and wildfires, which have affected not only the environment but also the country's cattle industry. However, efforts are being made by the Brazilian government to improve sustainability practices and reduce deforestation.
