dairy and animal husbandry
animal husbandry
n.
The branch of agriculture concerned with the care and breeding of domestic animals such as cattle, hogs, sheep, and horses.
dairy
A dairy is a facility for the extraction and processing of animal milk -- mostly from cows, sometimes from buffalo, sheep, horses or goats -- for human consumption. As an adjective, the word dairy describes milk-based or milk-related products and processes, e.g dairy farm, dairy cattle, dairy goat. A dairy farm produces milk and a dairy factory processes it into a variety of dairy products.
(In New Zealand English a "dairy" means a corner shop, milk bar or Superette, and "dairy factory" is the term for what is elsewhere a dairy).

beef cattle and dairy cows.
Wikipedia on cattle:
Cattle raised for human consumption are called 'beef cattle'. Within the beef cattle industry in parts of the United States, the older term 'beef' (plural 'beeves') is still used to refer to an animal of either gender. Cows of certain breeds that are kept for the milk they give are called 'dairy cows'.
