Solution

The correct option is B Karan-Swiss
Correct option: (b)

Karan-Swiss is a cross-breed of Brown Swiss and Sahiwal.

Brown Swiss is known for its long lactation period while Sahiwal is known for its sturdiness and is also known as the best milch breed of India.

The milk yielding capacity is thus greatly enhanced when the two breeds are crossed.
