The first day was a series of farm tours to beef herds at Chatsworth, Haddon Hall and monitor farmer Simon Frost. The Haddon Hall herd of Longhorns was also on display. The second day focussed on the trade event held in the market at Bakewell. We were kindly loaned cattle by Mike and Yvonne Smith and Tom Mills and were busy with enquiries during the day. Page 6 Longhorn Newsletter Issue 92 NORTHERN BREEDERS’ SHOWING DAY 1 MAY 2016 A less than hoped for turnout but with the weather being as it had in early spring and everyone behind on work it not too surprising. With no cows turned out as yet we made the best of what we had and had to move indoors as once again it rained. The demonstrations where carried out by Jim Courts of Thirsk who demonstrated clipping and dressing of a Longhorn senior heifer in preparation for the show or sale ring, followed by members having a go themselves. Jim selected and judged four cows for a stock judging competition and all members had a go - nobody totally agreed with Jim but the closest was James Emsley. After lunch two heifers were led into a show ring as Jim explained what a judge was looking for and how animal and handler should behave. A big thank you to Jim for his knowledge and advice and everyone went home with something to think about!! Graham Walker Northern Breeders’ Issue 92 Longhorn Newsletter Page 7 SOCIETY TECHNICAL DAY 8 May 2016 The Society’s first Technical Day was held at David and Angela Blockley’s Fieldhead Farm, Drighlington, Bradford on a gloriously sunny Sunday. Members enjoyed a series of talks and demonstrations; feeding and nutrition from Carrs Billington, embryo transfer from Rosie Hetherington, foot trimming from Richard Bartle and disbudding from Hilary Peel. After a busy morning everyone enjoyed lunch in the sunshine before heading home. The Society’s thanks go to all those who gave up their time to talk to Society members, and to David and Angela who let us use their buildings, cattle and equipment and fed us all so well!

The show Judge was Mrs Angela Blockley who selected as her Champion female Croftlands Ocean, a March 2014 born Maiden heifer from Colin Hughes of Silloth, Cumbria with Croftlands Octavia from the same home taking the reserve ticket. The leading bull was the Bollin Valley Partnership’s Blackbrook Vanguard and in reserve was the same vendor’s homebred bull, Bollin Odin. A really good crowd travelled from all corners of the country and cattle were distributed as far away as Berwickshire, Northumberland, Cambridgeshire, Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire but the great majority went to buyers in Derbyshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire and Cheshire. This good crowd of very interested purchasers resulted in a total clearance.

  • Study Looking at the Breed of Dam of Calves Recorded with BCMS Web
    EBLEX Report: Analysis of “Breed of Dam” for cattle recorded with BCMS 2003-2013 Samuel Boon, EBLEX, May 2014 (Version 1) Introduction The breed makeup of the nation’s suckler cows influences not just the beef produced and sold to consumers, but also the productivity and ultimately profitability of those farming systems in which cattle are born and reared. EBLEX asked the British Cattle Movement Service (BCMS) for a breakdown of the dams of calves recorded on the database on the basis of their breed. BCMS is part of the Rural Payments Agency (RPA) It is recognised that an analysis of this type of farmer derived data has some limitations. Where crossbreeding arises there is a tendency for the most valuable breed to be reported on the passport. This approach would favour the reporting of certain beef breeds – which may only account for 50% of the genetic makeup of the suckler cow. In the reporting of dairy breeds similar bias may arise. However, this is a large dataset and for the most part recording protocols have remained consistent over time so relative change over the last decade is still relevant to those interested in assessing which breeds and crosses are influencing the UK beef supply. Methodology BCMS data relates to passport applications received for live and dead animals born in Great Britain. Imported cattle are excluded from the data. Cows producing twins or calving twice within the year will be counted more than once. BCMS report 239 different breed codes. It is understood that these codes/breed types are determined by Breed Societies.

  • 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.

    British Native Cattle Breeds on Postage Stamps A. David Weaver, Ph.D., F.R.C.V.S.
