Gelbvieh cattle are a
German, triple purpose
breed.
They were bred for milk and
meat - and as a beast of
burden.
Gelbvieh is pronounced
‘gel-fee’ - meaning ‘gold
cow’.
Queensland stud breeders
produce quality Gelbvieh
stud stock.
Commercial herds are turning
off Gelbvieh and crossbred
stock,
which frequently tops the
market.
Breeder herds utilising
Gelbvieh for crossbreeding
with great results
are Angus, Braford, Charbray,
Charolais, Devon,
Droughtmaster,
Grey Brahman, Hereford, Red
Brahman, Santa Gertrudis and
Shorthorn.
The potential of
crossbreeding with Gelbvieh
is limited only
by those not taking the
opportunity to use Gelbvieh
bulls
to source the breed’s
strengths and versatility.
