Welcome to the UK Brown Swiss Cattle Society website

The Brown Swiss Cattle Society (UK) has a growing active membership across the UK and Ireland, and you can join in order to register your Brown Swiss cattle as pedigree and begin your own pedigree Brown Swiss herd. You will receive updates and information about the Brown Swiss breed here in the UK, Society events, show reports and access to the NBDC help desk and the Society administration office. You can also join as an associate member from anywhere in the world enabling you to stay in touch with the Society, the membership and the Brown Swiss breed here in the UK.

The main aims of the Society are:

To prepare, maintain and make available a genealogical record of the breed through the UK Society Herdbook
To promote and represent the best interests of breeders and owners of Brown Swiss cattle here in the UK.
To support its members in developing and improving the Brown Swiss breed.
