Number of heads of cattle in the last decade of 20th century has been constantly decreasing. In 1985, there were 2,249,000 heads of cattle in breeding in Serbia (Yugoslavia), or 1,241,000 cows and pregnant heifers. According to data for year 2000, there were 1,272,000 heads of cattle, or 843,000 of cows and pregnant heifers. Production in the Republic of Serbia (Yugoslavia) in 1999 was 1,644,000 t of milk (2139 kg of milk per cow). Intensifying of agricultural production, including cattle production has lead to the change in presence of cattle breeds. Today, Simmental breed is present with 35%, Domestic Spotted breed of Simmental type with 45% and Black and White Holstein-Friesian cattle with 5%, whereas, primitive breeds and crossbreds contribute with 15% in total number of cattle in the Republic of Serbia (Yugoslavia). Use of breeding methods, modern biotechnological methods, as well as engagement of experts and increase of number of farmers (with over 10 cows), in a relatively short period of 6 to 8 years, could lead to quality change in cattle production of Serbia (Yugoslavia). In this way few basic cattle genotypes for the production of milk and meat could be created.
