All-Ireland Holstein Friesian breeders to vie for Spring Show trophy

A RDS Silver Medal will be presented for the Holstein Friesian Champion of the Spring Dairy Fair in Cavan Equestrian Centre next Saturday — the first qualifier for the 2006 RDS/Irish Holstein Friesian Association Champion of Champions.

Contenders for this new title will also be drawn from the Tullamore Show in August, the Baileys Champion in Virginia in September and the National Dairy Show at Millstreet in October.

Each of the four champions — including the Irish Examiner Farming National Dairy Show supreme champion at Millstreet — will receive an RDS Silver Medal.
