Hereford cattle are known for their distinctive red body and white face, primarily raised for beef production and recognized for their marbling and quality meat. In contrast, Gelbvieh cattle, which originate from Germany, have a solid golden to light reddish-brown color and are valued for their versatility in both beef and milk production. Gelbvieh are also known for their rapid growth rates and high fertility. While both breeds are prominent in beef production, their physical characteristics and specific agricultural uses differ significantly.
