About the Book

This comprehensive Highland Cattle Handbook is a definitive professional guide to one of the world's most iconic and resilient heritage breeds. Spanning the Highlands of Scotland to farms and conservation projects across the globe, it blends centuries of traditional husbandry with the latest advances in sustainable agriculture and precision livestock technology. Readers are taken on a full journey through the breed's ancient lineage and cultural significance, from the early Celtic herds that roamed Scotland's rugged landscapes to the vibrant global networks of modern breeders. Each chapter delivers an in-depth exploration of essential topics: anatomy and morphological adaptations, behavioral ecology, breeding systems and genetic management, and the detailed science of nutrition and grazing. The book goes far beyond the basics of beef production to illuminate the many roles Highland cattle play in contemporary agriculture and ecological stewardship. It explains how their hardiness and flexible grazing habits make them natural partners in conservation projects and climate-smart farming. Practical sections cover calving and reproductive management, health care and veterinary protocols, direct-to-consumer beef marketing, agritourism opportunities, and the integration of advanced tools such as GPS grazing monitors, automated weighing, AI-driven health analytics, and drone-based pasture surveys. Legal and ethical considerations-animal welfare regulations, transport laws, traceability standards, and the ethics of breeding rare heritage cattle-are carefully detailed. The final chapters present a global perspective: international shows, breeder associations, collaborative research, and the shared responsibility of farmers, scientists, and consumers in ensuring the Highland's genetic diversity and ecological relevance for generations to come. Written in a professional yet accessible style, this handbook serves farmers, breeders, conservationists, agricultural students, and anyone fascinated by the intersection of tradition and innovation. It is both a practical manual for modern Highland cattle management and an inspiring narrative of how an ancient breed can help build a sustainable future.
