3 - BBM - Dual Purpose Belgian Blue Beef

The dual purpose Belgian Blue Beef is distinctively different from the double muscled Belgian Blue Beef. As a representative of the ancestral beef breed called Beef of the Middle and Upper Belgium it has dual purpose beef and milk production, To allow to make the right breeding decision on genetic identification, two types of dual purpose BBB have been identified based on the genotype for the mh gene

  • More dairy type: mixed type +/+ or mh/+
  • More beefy type: mixed mh/mh

Due to increasing interest in this dual purpose BBB and international interest to preserve biodiversity, a new testing program has been put in place by the Walloon Ministry of Agriculture.

In the BBB full blood stock breeding programs, BBM is often used to reduce inbreeding.

3 BBM bulls are now available in North America
