Abstract(s)

Over the centuries, the mirandesa breed has been very useful! as traction animal and meat production. The latter, and in relation to other national breeds, their productive capacity occupies the first position and is famous for the quality of "posta mirandesa", a very special and appreciated dish by the rich gastronomy in the Northeast of Portugal. In spite of erosion suffered in the last decades, the ''mirandês'' cattle breed still has an important economic and social value.
