Steem-agro Contest: "Basic Knowledge in Agriculture #11"
Greetings my fellow steemians.
| What is the primary purpose of animal mating and what benefits is it in the agricultural sector? |
|---|
Animal breeding plays an important part in progressing the animal production system, from conversion to organics. By improving the abilities of animals for certain traits, the entire population can be enhanced, creating benefits for farmers, consumers, and the environment. Animal husbandry is agriculture that deals with animals that are fiber, meat, eggs, milk, and other products.
This process helps us to make ideas for breeds that have qualities like high yield, disease resistance, etc. The improved breed Can thereafter be used to ensure qualities for the next generation as well. It helps us to eliminate qualities and traits and ensure healthy consumption for everybody.
| What are monogamous and polygamous mating? Give the different types of mating with their example. |
|---|
Monogamous mating is defined as when a single male and female form a pair bond, while polygamous mating is when a person of either sex mates with more than one member of the opposite sex. In Monogamy, a male and female form a pair bond that can be long or short-term. In this case, the pair may live in other areas or territories and only reproduce with each other, including, for example, Atlantic puffins, who are known to be socially, genetically, and sexually monogamous and usually stay with the same mate for life.
Polygamy is a general term for when people of either sex have more than one mate. There are two types of polygamy: polygyny, and polyandry.
I hear by mention @onomzy001 @chigoziee @ninapenda to participate in this contest.
Hi saintpaul,
You've written in a beautiful and straight to the manner approach, your post cut through the clutter and gives just what is necessary, kudos.
I have read your post and learnt that:
Animalating helps in breeding the perfect species of animals, one that would ensure we get just the best. I also learnt that animals like humans can be monogamous and polygamous. It's also amazing to know that the monogamous ones are quite loyal and committed it even more amazing to know that the polygamy is not restricted to just the males. Even the females are not left out.
However, I would love to understand this part
I know it's something interesting and I wouldn't want to miss out on it.
All in all you have a beautiful post, please keep it up.
Love ya
Adiós
Very good and actually true that mating enhance the reproduction and progression among animal's.
Thank you for sharing.
