A trial was conducted in order to compare the carcass value of bulls of the Czech Pied (C) and Black-Pied (N) cattle at the current stage of breeding for milk efficiency. Dressing percentage was by 2.5 % (58.9 %) higher in C bulls than in N bulls (56.4 %). Total output of usable fats (C 21.3 kg, N 24.7 kg) shows significant differences in terms of their absolute and relative values. A significant difference was determined between the average weights (C 176.4 kg, N 168.3 kg) of the right sides of beef with regard to different weights of dressed carcasses. Significantly higher dressing percentage of prime cuts was recorded in C group both in absolute (C 69.8 kg, 64.8 kg) and relative values (C 39.6 %, N 38.5 %). Meat production per 1 kg of bones was substantially higher in C bulls (by 0.5kg). A significant difference (1.4 %) in favour of N bulls was determined in fat content in musculus longissimus dorsi.
