Herd Competition 2018

  Judge:- Gayle Bersey, 2 Triffle Farm Cottages, Downderry Torpoint, Cornwall
Results of the 2018 Herd Competition which were announced at the Club's Annual Dinner on 24th November 2018, Gayle commented that the cattle were a credit to all the breeders and in her opinion there were many exceptional females in the South West. The herds she saw were well managed and the cattle were doing the job they were supposed to do.
