[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1781170, member: 968"] The founders of the American Simmental Assn decided what strains of breeds they would accept as imported semen/cattle to upgrade here in US. The breeds first official herdbook was established in 1806 in Switzerland. Since its origin, it spread to all 6 continents. The breed was known by many different names, depending on their location. The founders chose different strains to be accepted as fullbloods to be used to upgrade here in US. They chose to exclude the Gelbvieh because of temperament issues, back in 1968. Travers Smith toured the different countries and gave his recommendations and brought the first "Simmental" into Canada providing US with their first semen. [/QUOTE]
