Simmental cattle are cattle that come from the Simmental breed. They are a dual-purpose breed, meaning that they are used for both milk and meat production. The Simmental breed is one of the oldest cattle breeds in the world, and it is thought to have originated in the Swiss Alps. Simmental cattles are known for their high quality milk and meat, as well as their good resistance to disease.

These cattle are usually black or red in color, and they have a white “ blaze ” on their forehead. They are a large breed of cattle, and bulls can weigh up to 2,000 pounds. These cattles are also known for their docile nature, and they are often used in crossbreeding programs.

These cattles are an important part of the Swiss economy, and they are also raised in many other countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. In the United States, there are about 1,000 Simmental cattles breeders. The Simmentals breed makes up about 4 percent of the total cattle population in Switzerland.
