The breeds of cattle mainly meant for milk production are called milch breeds. E.g., Sindhi, Jersey.
Jersey is a high milk yielding exotic breed. It originated outside India and imported to India, hence called as exotic breed.
The breed meant mainly for transport and field work is called draught or draft breed. E.g., Hallikar.
Dual purpose breeds are used for both field work and production of milk. E.g., Ongole.
