Hereford Cattle Breed HistoryTry our search!
How do I recognise Hereford Cattle... ?The Hereford with its gentle white face is known all over the world. Herefords are also referred to as Whiteface or Whitehead cattle.
Back to TopWhere can I find Hereford Cattle?United Kingdom (from 1700s), Ireland (from 1775), Australia(from 1825), New Zealand, United States (from 1817), Canada, Russia (from 1904), Norway (1949). Herefords will stand out in the arctic snows of Finland, endure the heat of the northern Transvaal, withstand the tough climate and rough grazing of northern Uruguay or the sub - tropical zones of Brazil and still manage to thrive Back to TopWhat are the origins of the Hereford Breed?The Hereford (A Short
History) In Herefordshire in the 1770's the Herefordshire breed was the first accepted as an distinct breed of cattle. The Hereford breed developed on the rich pastures of Herefordshire and is bred to produce the highest quality red marbled beef from grass alone. Since the early 1800's, Herefords have been bred in Ireland and we have kept the tradition of grass-based beef production at which our breed excels. The origin of the Hereford is shrouded in the mists of time but it is generally agreed that it was founded on the draught ox descended from the small red cattle of Roman Britain and from a large white Welsh breed once numerous along the border of England and Wales. The Hereford Herd Book Society was founded in 1878,
The herd book was opened in 1846 and since1886 has been closed to
any animal whose sire or dam had not been previously entered so that
for over 150 years the purity of the breed has remained intact.
Because of its performance as a crossing sire on commercial cattle
and indigenous breeds in many countries the impact of the Hereford
on world beef production can hardly be appreciated. This widespread
popularity could only have come about because farmers, ranchers and
feeders found the Hereford to be consistently profitable under a
wide range of climates and conditions. More than five million
pedigree Herefords exist in over 50 countries. The Hereford export
trade began in 1817 spreading across the United States and Canada
through Mexico to the great beef raising countries of South America.
Today, Herefords dominate the world scene from the prairies to the
pampas and the Russian Steppes. The former USSR has more than two
million white-faced cattle, Australia and South Africa have vast
numbers and they can be found in Israel, Egypt, Romania, Japan,
Spain New Zealand and throughout Europe and Scandinavia.
