The History of Aubrac Cattle. Aubrac cattle come from Massif, in France. They are a very old French Breed. The French Herd Book was set up in 1893 by an order of French monks. At this time there was around 300,000 Aubracs. Today there are around 3,000 Cows inscribed in the French Stud Book, but in total there are 10,000 cows. There are Cows in Germany. Half of them are inscribed in The Stud Book. In France 60% of the cows are crossed with Culard Charolais Bulls and n ow 2,500 A Charolais Bulls.

The Aubrac Breed! The "Aubrac" Breed is know for it's toughness, its high resistance against disease, lovgevity and easy calving. It is very normal to see a 20 Year Old Aubrac Cow in France still producing a calf. The French aim for their Aubrac Cows is to produce one calf per cow per year.
