Polish Black and White

Cattle

White (ZB) and Polish Red and White (ZR) were founded in Poland in 2008. Both breeds belong to dual purpose cattle. The animals are multicolored: black and white and red and white spotted with beige horns. Adult males weight on average 750 kg and females 650 kg with and average wither height is of 152cm and 138cm respectively. At present there are in Poland about 600 Polish black and white and about 1200 Polish red and white cows registered in HB. The breeding goal is a reconstruction of animals in an old “compact “ type with less then 50% genes of HF cattle. Now this breed is protected by the genetic resources protection program.
