A growing number of pure-bred herds of beef breeds began to grow a herd of cows with a dual-purpose efficiency type, farmers often use their crosses with beef breeds of cattle to increase their meat performance. The aim of this diploma work was to analyse results of fattening ability and carcass value of Czech Pied Cattle bulls (C) and their crosses with beef breeds. In evaluation selected indicators were included 907 slaughtered bulls dividing according their genotype. The software programs Microsoft Excel and Statistica has been used for processing calculations and the statistic data. An important indicator is achieved dressed carcass weight (DCW), which was highest in bulls Meat Siemental (SI) 370.1 kg, Aberdeen Angus (G) 359.0 kg and crossbreeds Charolais and Czech Pied Cattle (TxC) 354.2 kg. Lowest DCW had extensive breed Highland (E) and Galloway (W) 318.8 kg. The difference between SI and E + W was 51.3 kg and was highly statistically significant (P {$\leq$} 0.001). The group of TxC and TxH and breed Piemontese (P) had the highest intensity of growth, net gain was 671.5 g, resp. 669.6 g for T and crosses and 652.5 g for the breed P. The lowest average net gain was found in the breed G (531.3 g). The highest production of first quality meat was found in the breed P (55.6 kg), 55.4 kg was achieved in breed SI. At least meat I. grade was found in bulls of E and W (47.2 kg). Significant difference was found between SI and E + W at a significance level P {$\leq$} 0.001. Based on the results we can recommend commercial crossings Czech Pied cattle with bulls meat breed or breeding pure-bred beef breeds. It is important to take into account the specificity of each breed, its earliness and size of body frame in the choice of slaughter weight and age of fattening bulls, to avoid unwanted growth of fat in bulls, and to realize the slaughter weight trough the most intensive fattening.
