Abstract: The dairy cattle breeding industry serves as the foundation and cornerstone of the dairy industry chain, with superior dairy cattle breeds constituting the material basis for dairy industry development. Therefore, vigorously developing the dairy cattle breeding industry is a long-term strategy to promote the development of China′s dairy industry, with far-reaching significance for driving the long-term prosperity of China′s dairy industry. As one of the main production areas for herbivorous livestock in China, the innovative development of the dairy cattle breeding industry in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is particularly critical and urgent. With reference to the national strategies of "Breeding Industry Revitalization" and "Dairy Industry Revitalization" ,the study conducted an in-depth analysis of the current state of the dairy cattle breeding industry in Inner Mongolia to systematically examine the challenges and bottlenecks faced in the dairy cattle breeding industry development. Based on this analysis, a series of innovative development strategies were proposed, including short-term and long-term objectives, along with corresponding countermeasures and recommendations, with a particular emphasis on the core research directions for the development of the dairy cattle breeding industry, thereby providing robust decision-making support and a scientific basis for the further development of the dairy cattle breeding industry in Inner Mongolia.
