Black Pied

Cattle

The Black Pied Dairy Cattle (German: Schwarzbuntes Milchrind (SMR)) were a cattle breed of the GDR, created through combination breeding. In 1963, Professor Schönmuth suggested this way: Jersey bulls from Denmark are crossed with German Black Pied cows. The descendants of this crossing are crossed with Holsteins. The goal of this three-breed cross was to create a cattle breed with high milk production, high milk fat content, and sufficient beef performance. This breed was continued until 1990. After the German reunification the Black Pied dairy cattle were displaced by German Holstein cattle.
