The detail
Simmental come from the Swiss Alps as a dual-purpose milk and beef breed. In the US they are a growthy, maternal beef cow with plenty of milk, often crossed with Angus to make SimAngus.
What to weigh
Heavy milk production needs feed to back it up, or cows lose condition. Frame size varies widely between old and modern lines.
