Suckler cow ‘888’ from the Teagasc Kildalton Suckler herd is in the top 1% of all Suckler cows in Ireland for the Replacement Index with a calving interval of 365 days after 9 calvings. She is sired by ‘Hymour’ and out of a ‘BBL’ cow. She has an ‘SEV’ heifer calf at foot.
Herdplus are running a photo competition in the run up to the Beef Herdplus Journal being published later this year.
If you have a good photo of one of your Suckler cows please email the photo to [email protected] with her tag number included before Monday the 2nd of June 2014.
The photos will be judged not only on the quality of the cow but also on her EuroStar indexes and progeny performance details.
The selected cows will be featured on the ICBF website and also in the upcoming Beef Herdplus Journal.
