  • 1998 September-October ADCA Dexter Bulletin
    The Dexter Bulletin September I October, 1998 A chronological account of the World Dexter Congress by Wes and Jane Patton Note' The following is information taken from our notes taken during the congress and may vary somewhat from the written proceedings when they arrive. We thought that our members who were not able to attend might like to know about some of the things we experienced during this well planned and expertly conducted conference. AUGUST 27 -Jane and I arrived at Cirencester, England and the Royal Agricultural College on the evening of August 27 after enjoying the b·eauty and heritage of the Cotswold area of England. We had arrived in London on the 24th and rented a car and headed north to the center of sheep country. Driving on the left side of the road proved to be a challenge, but with some good maps and Jane's expert copiloting we soon were enjoying a new The chamr>ion cow with her owner Di Smith of Dover. scene at every turn. Upon arrival at the Congress we finally met "the other" Rosemary, Rosemary Brown, who played a major part in the expert job of organizing the first World Dexter Congress. What a delightful person she is and immediately she started to introduce us to countless people we had heard about but had never met. Soon we were settled in our college dormitory room, which brought back memories to us all. Later that evening we met up with other members of the ADCA contingent, along with other delegates from the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, S.

  • Ireland's Rare Breeds
    IRELAND’S RARE BREEDS A CASE STUDY Ireland’s Rare Breeds What are Rare Breeds? Rare breeds are a breed of livestock or poultry that have a very small breeding population left. Due to their small population numbers, the conservation status of the rare breed can be identified as high. Organisations have been/ are set up devoted to the conservation of these rare breeds, protecting and promoting the breed to help save it from extinction. Some indigenous, native or rare breeds associated to old Ireland are: Equines (Horses), such as the Connemara Pony, the Kerry Bog Pony and the Irish Draught; Bovines (Cattle), such as the Irish Moiled cattle, Kerry Cattle and Dexters; Ovines (Sheep), such as the Galway Sheep. How do these breeds become rare? After the war Ireland’s farmers sought to become more efficient in their farming practices. New breeds were introduced at the expense of Irish indigenous (native) stock. Farmers became aware that with the introduction of more profitable/ efficient breeds – e.g. the Holstein-Friesian – that native breeds such as the Irish Moiled became undisputedly viewed as a highly unprofitable breed in comparison to the high milk yield of the Holstein-Friesian. The introduction of ‘selective breeding’ during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries improved the genetic characteristics of animals, such as their weight, milk yield, leanness and speed of maturity in order to improve profit. As a result of this, many Irish breeds became extinct and only a few native breeds remain today. Animal breeds that were native to old Ireland and have become extinct are: Ulster Large White Pig unsuitable for live transport.
