In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was realized the study to optimize the selection process in the population of cattle of Belarusian black-white breed and to determine the best option program of large-scale breeding. Perfect variant according to value of genetic progress and economic efficiency of large scale selection of livestock of Belarusian black-motley breed, according to which the number of cows of active part of the population is 480,000, the number of genealogical lines (complexes)in the breed – 6, the number of fathers of bulls in the complex – 2, the semen pool from one bull checked – 30 thousand doses, the number of 'effective' daughters to test the bull by offspring – 50, the number of repair calves for elevers – 535, the number of bulls selected on the quality of offspring, - 108. The program will provide genetic progress of breeding population on milk yields at 40 kg of milk per cow annually, the rate of genetic progress of population increases by 1,08 %. Cost-effectiveness of the program will make 159%.
