Islay Beef Herd Competition

The second annual 'Islay Beef Herd Competition' was held on Saturday 30th August. The judge for the day, Mr Robert Currie of Tayinloan, did not have an easy task selecting the following results from the high standard of stock. There were entries from 29 farms each of which entered five cows with calves at foot. A big thank you to Robert the judge, the sponsors, to everyone who entered, and to the many people who helped to make the day such a success.
