Abstract

In developing nations, livestock has a significant impact on public health and food security, making them a critical source of income, nutrition, and agricultural resilience. The identification of breeds accurately remains a challenge for small-scale producers, resulting in suboptimal nutrition, inadequate disease control, and reduced sustainability. This research establishes an effective framework for cow breed detection via transfer learning, assessed on an enhanced dataset of 6,040 photos spanning five breeds. A comparison was conducted between four architectures: LaVin-DiT, CoAtNet, EfficientNetV2, and lightweight DAMambaNet. EfficientNetV2 attained exceptional accuracy (95.6%), but DAMambaNet provided practical benefits (6.18 MB, 0.5 ms inference) for mobile deployment in rural areas. Advancing One Health objectives, the framework facilitates precise breed identification to inform reproduction, vaccination, and nutritional decisions. Field validation continues to be indispensable for verifying the agronomic advantages.
