New values for production purposes - Breeding, SucklerCow

[ahokkonen]

We would like to have additional values for production purposes - Breeding and SucklerCow.
Is this something also used outside Nordic? @cookeac @alamers @erwinspeybroeck

{
	"type": "string",
	"enum": [
		"Meat",
		"Milk",
		"Wool",
		"Breeding",
		"SucklerCow"
	]
}

It is not used in the Netherlands or Flanders.
Only remark that I have is that breeding en sucklercow can refer to milk or meat - that might complicate it a bit.
But not a real objection to add it.

[ahokkonen]

Yes, agree, so technically it could be "multi-purpose" which we do not support in ADE.
...and at the end they all are meat :)

[cookeac]

Yes, its not a super-helpful enumeration. It was intended to look at the primary "product" that is being produced, and hence the focus of performance breeding objectives.

Suckler cow enterprises are typically for meat but can be for milk. In contrast, I think breeding in the sense of a primary product being stud animals for sale is valid.

If we were doing this now I would suggest an array of these enumerated values.

Also: the naming SucklerCow is quite cow-specific, do we want to generalise that?
