As I infer, it's a variety of cattle (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

friesian

'cattle' is the definition.
(I know that Friesian is a dairy cattle)

'as i infer it's a variety' is the wordplay.
'it's a variety' indicates an anagram.
'as'+'i'+'infer'='asiinfer'
'asiinfer' anagrammed gives 'FRIESIAN'.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for friesian that I've seen before include "source of milk" , "Source of beef" , "Black and white cattle breed" , "from Holland" , "Black and white dairy cattle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
