National Dairy Show comes of age

ORGANISERS face into Saturday week’s 21st National Dairy Show, knowing it is the first of five dress rehearsals for 2008, when the World Holstein Friesian Federation Annual Conference comes to Ireland, putting the breed in this country in the international limelight.

The conference is eagerly looked forward to by the ambitious Cork Holstein Friesian Club, which has enjoyed 21 years of success with their show at Millstreet, and who this week announced a substantial increase in prize money for the 2003 Show on Saturday, October 18.

They also revealed that their livestock marketing programme launched last year has already assisted in the sale of about €850,000 of cattle, and they hope to expand it and develop export markets for high quality Irish heifers.
