Abstract: Simmental is a dairy-beef dual-purpose breed and it is the second cattle breed in the world. Its present number in stock in the world is more than 41000 000. Inner Mongolia is the breeding base of Simmental in China. Nowadays Simmental has been the dominant species in beef cattle industry in Inner Mongolia. At the end of 2013, the number of beef cattle in stock in Inner Mongolia was over 5700 000, and more than 90% of fine breeds and improved breeds had Simmental bloodline. Based on analyzing the production characteristics of Simmental, some technology measures of rearing Simmental were proposed so as to provide references for breeding Simmental in Inner Mongolia.
