[3][9]: 186 The Raço di Biòu is raised principally for the traditional sport of the course camarguaise, a type of bloodless bull-running in which castrated bullocks are used.

The bullocks are driven on foot to the arena by mounted gardians (the abrivado), and returned to the manade in the same way (the bandido).

[4] The meat of the Raço di Biòu, along with that of the Brava cattle breed and crosses between the two, can – under strict conditions of pasturage and of zone and methods of production – be marketed with the Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée certification of origin as "Taureau de Camargue"; animals that have appeared in the bull-ring are excluded.

[9]: 187 [10] The cattle contribute to the maintenance of large areas of Camargue wetland,[9]: 183  and are also regarded as a tourist attraction.

[3] The administration of the Parc naturel régional de Camargue participates in several aspects of the management of the breed, including registration of births and matings, and organisation of course camarguaises.
