Ministry Looking to Export Genetic Material from Cattle | Jamaica Information Service: "The Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries is looking to tap into the export earning potential of the local cattle industry, specifically its genetic material.

This is in response to demand for genetic stock from Jamaica's four indigenous cattle breeds – the Red and Black Polls, Brahman, and Hope – by several countries, seeking to enhance the quality of their stocks.

The Jamaica Red and Black Poll, and Brahman are reared for beef production, and the Hope, for dairy outputs."
