Breed of the Week! Special Cattle Edition!

This week's special Cattle Breed of the Week focuses on the Simmental. Enjoy!

Simmental are a versatile breed of cattle originating in the valleys of the Simme river, in the Bernese Oberland of western Switzerland.

European origin

Among the oldest and most widely distributed of all breeds of cattle in the world, and recorded since the Middle Ages, theSimmental breed has contributed to the creation of several other famous European breeds including the Montbeliarde(France), the Razzeta d'Oropa (Italy), and the Fleckvieh (Germany).

North America

There are reports from a variety of sources indicating that Simmental cattle arrived in the United States before the turn of the century. Simmental were reported as early as 1887 in Illinois, according to one source; in 1895 in New Jersey; and in both New York and New Mexico around the 1916 to 1920 period. An advert in an 1896 issue of the Breeder's Gazette, published in Chicago, also made reference to "Simmenthal" cattle. However, those early imports did not capture the attention of American cattlemen and the Simmental influence died quietly away until the late 1960s.

The breed made its most recent appearance in North America when a Canadian, named Travers Smith, imported the famed bull "Parisien" from France in 1967. Semen was introduced into the United States that same year, with the first half-blood Simmental calf born in February 1968. The American Simmental Association was formed in October 1968.

The American Simmental Association registers about 80,000 cattle annually into the Simmental and Simbrah herdbooks. The association ranks among the top four of the U.S. beef breed associations in annual registrations.
