This research was carried out to examine the fattening performance and carcass characteristic such as hot carcass weight and dressing percentage of Holstein and crossbreed Holstein, Simmental and crossbreed Simmental, Brown Swiss and crossbreed Brown Swiss, Charolais and crossbreed Native Anatolian Black cattle. The data set consist of live weight and hot carcass weight records obtained from a commercial farm placed in Sanliurfa province. Slaughter live weights, hot carcass weights, dressing percentage and daily live weight gains were detected as 533.55±5.799, 330.5±3.544, 0.56 ± 0.001 and 1.26±0.019 kg for Simmental, 527.01±7.868, 321.01±4.80, 0.55±0.002 and 1.24±0.027 kg, for Holstein, 522.78±9.575, 323.64 ± 6.152, 0.56±0.003 and 1.22±0.032 kg for crossbreed Holstein, 522.86±11.996, 323.22 ± 7.333, 0.56±0.003 and 1.22±0.036 kg for Charolais, 519.58±6.361, 318.85 ± 3.985, 0.56±0.002 and 1.21±0.021 kg for crossbreed Simmental, 507.35±6.602, 315.26 ± 3.861 0.56±0.002 and 1.17±0.021 kg for crossbreed Brown Swiss, 502.15±8.253, 311.24±4.97, 0.56±0.002 and 1.15±0.026 kg for crossbreed Native Anatolian Black and finally, 491.27±4.705, 306.21±2.783, 0.56±0.003 and 1.12±0.015 kg for Brown Swiss cattle respectively. At the end of this research, considering the slaughter live weights, hot carcass weights and daily live weight gains, determined that Simmental, crossbreed Simmental, Charolais, Holstein and crossbreed Holstein were superior than crossbreed Native Anatolian Black, Brown Swiss and cross breed Brown Swiss (P<0.05). However, considering the dressing percentage of cattle breeds, Holstein had lover percentage than the others (P<0.05). According to these results, for intensive fattening activity, it is advisable to cattle breeders that using Simmental, crossbreed Simmental, Charolais, crossbreed Holstein for the under Sanliurfa conditions.
