American Simmental Association

American Simmental Association is a U.S. nonprofit breed association and cattle genetics organization focused on Simmental and SimGenetics beef cattle. It provides herdbook registration, genetic evaluation, DNA and genomics-enabled services, expected progeny difference tools, performance data programs, and breeder/commercial cattle resources for the beef industry. The association emphasizes multi-breed genetic evaluation, data-driven selection tools, and industry collaboration, including participation in International Genetic Solutions, which it describes as the world’s largest beef cattle genetic evaluation. Its business is service-based rather than therapeutic, with revenues derived from membership, registry, testing, publications, and related industry programs. The organization is active and operates from Bozeman, Montana.
