BRITISH WHITES CELEBRATE 100 YEARS WITH HUGELY SUCCESSFUL AUTUMN SHOW & SALE
Marking a full century of pedigree recording for the breed, the British White Cattle Society have spent 2019 celebrating in style and the annual Society-supported Show & Sale held at Melton Mowbray Market on 13th & 14th September was no exception! With a top price of 2500gns, full clearance and very promising averages, as well as an Interbreed Championship to top it all off, the atmosphere over the weekend was definitely one of great excitement, with new and existing breeders all going home with purchases to be truly proud of. The Society would like to thank its contributors for yet another successful event, where the support of every vendor, buyer, judge, inspector and advisor is so greatly appreciated.
