About Kazakh White-Headed CattleAbout Kazakh White-Headed Cattle



Kazakh White-headed cattle are from the steppe regions of Kazakhstan and the southeast regions of Russia - Orenburg, Volgograd and Saratov. They were developed by crossing Hereford Bulls with local Kazakh breeds of cows, and also Kalmyk cattle; followed by line-breeding. In the new breed, they sought to combine the high meat quantity of Hereford cattle with the positive attributes of Kazakh and Kalmyk cattle. The Kazakh White-headed breed was approved in 1951.
