President’s Report

by John Eccles, CMSS President Greetings to all you Milking Shorthorn Friends on behalf of the CMSS Board of Directors. I hope this finds you all happy and healthy. The year 2021 is well upon us now and the adventure that 2020 brought us has continued, but shown glimpses of some resolution.

Hopefully, sooner than later, we will be able to get together in person again on a late July day for food, fellowship and Shorthorns.

However, this year we will again be meeting virtually for our AGM. At the moment, there are still plans for a National Show in Lindsay. I hope that many of you can join us and participate in these events. Thank you to all who made our altered programming in 2020 a success. In our relatively small breed we have needed “all hands on deck” and you have not disappointed.

I would also like to commend our members who come up with new ideas to promote and grow the breed. Hopefully the seeds that you have planted will grow and propagate into new opportunities to demonstrate the value of our Canadian Milking Shorthorn in an ever changing marketplace.

In a society and industry that asks for efficiency, sustainability and a nutritious product, we have the answer! That is why it is so good to own the Red, White and Roan!

Secretary-Manager Report 2021

by Ryan Barrett To use a somewhat overused turn of phrase, the last fifteen months have been “unprecedented” for everyone. All of us have seen everyday life change in a number of ways to control the spread of COVID-19.

Many farmers have remarked that things haven’t changed too much on the farm…cows still need to be milked, crops still need to be planted and harvested. Nonetheless, we’ve seen major disruptions to our social lives, the market for milk products, cattle and beef pricing, availability of supplies, and even things like service calls that now have an extra layer of complexity. When we are finally past this immediate crisis, I sense that there will be a collective sigh of relief if not a surge in social activities to help make up for lost time.

In the Milking Shorthorn breed, we’ve tried to soldier on the best that we can. The Board of Directors chose to enact a moratorium on overage registrations for the second half of 2020 and first two months of 2021 in an effort to ensure that breeders were caught up on registrations. We had a number of herds take advantage of this initiative, resulting in 2020 being our best year for registrations in a decade. We have also added a number of new members and new prefix registrations in recent months, which is always encouraging. While the market for replacement heifers has been quite stagnant for some time now due to oversupply in the industry, we are still seeing first time buyers seeking out Milking Shorthorns.

Part of the feedback that I’ve received over the years is that there are dairy producers across Canada who are interested in Milking Shorthorns, but they’re not really sure how to start with the breed. Some farms have closed herds and don’t like to bring in outside animals.

Others are in provinces or regions where Milking Shorthorns are harder to come by. Others don’t want to start with just any quality of cattle 6

CMSS Improver 2021

but would like to invest in genetics that should start a good foundation family for their herd. As a result, the Society has developed the new Embryo Expansion Program that was launched in May, and applications are due at the end of June. Additional details on this program are outlined later in the Improver, but I would encourage any new or prospective Milking Shorthorn breeders to consider applying to this program. I can think of no better way to establish a Milking Shorthorn component to your herd!

Through COVID-19, the Society has had to adjust on the fly in the past year. Our AGM moved online in 2020, and we will do the same this summer on July 17th. I encourage all members to log on and participate in our AGM this year and hear about the work that the CMSS is doing. Last year, we also launched a new Virtual National Show for the first time, and we had participation from a number of breeders across the country, including some farms that don’t normally show at our National Show in Lindsay. For 2021, we are planning to have an inperson National Show at Lindsay on September 18th. I hope that conditions will be such that many members will be able to participate or simply attend the show.

In closing, I invite all CMSS members and Milking Shorthorn fans to find a way to help us continue growing the breed, both in population size as well as in quality. This could be something as direct as participating in breed improvement programs that improve genetic evaluations, particularly for sire proofs. It could be talking to your neighbour about why Milking Shorthorns have a place in your herd. It could be growing the size of your small herd by a few heifers from one of the herds advertising in this annual journal. It could be as simple as taking some interesting photos of your Milking Shorthorns and sharing them with me to use for breed promotion. All members can play a part in the development and enhancement of our breed, and many small efforts can lead to significant results.

Rapport du secrétaire 2021 par Ryan Barrett, Secrétaire, SCSL Pour utiliser une tournure de phrase quelque peu surutilisée, les quinze derniers mois ont été «sans précédent» pour tout le monde. Nous avons tous vu la vie quotidienne changer de plusieurs façons pour contrôler la propagation du COVID-19. De nombreux agriculteurs ont remarqué que les choses n’avaient pas trop changé à la ferme… les vaches doivent être traites, les cultures doivent être plantées et récoltées. Néanmoins, nous avons constaté des perturbations majeures dans notre vie sociale, le marché des produits laitiers, les prix du bétail et du bœuf, la disponibilité des approvisionnements et même des choses comme les appels de service qui ont maintenant une couche supplémentaire de complexité. Lorsque nous aurons enfin passé cette crise immédiate, je sens qu’il y aura un soupir collectif de soulagement, sinon une vague d’activités sociales pour aider à rattraper le temps perdu.

Dans la race Shorthorn Laitier, nous avons essayé de faire de notre mieux. Le conseil d’administration a choisi de décréter un moratoire sur les enregistrements des animaux plus âgées our la seconde moitié de 2020 et les deux premiers mois de 2021 afin de s’assurer que les éleveurs soient rattrapés par les enregistrements. Un certain nombre de troupeaux ont profité de cette initiative, ce qui fait de 2020 notre meilleure année pour les inscriptions depuis une décennie. Nous avons également ajouté un certain nombre de nouveaux membres et de nouvelles inscriptions de préfixes ces derniers mois, ce qui est toujours encourageant. Bien que le marché des génisses de remplacement stagne depuis un certain temps maintenant en raison de l’offre excédentaire dans l’industrie, nous voyons toujours des acheteurs pour la première fois chercher des Shorthorns Laitier.

Une partie des commentaires que j’ai reçus au fil des ans est qu’il y a des producteurs laitiers à travers le Canada qui s’intéressent des Shorthorns Laitier, mais ils ne savent pas vraiment par où commencer avec la race. Certaines fermes ont fermé des troupeaux et n’aiment pas faire entrer des animaux à l’extérieur. D’autres se trouvent dans des provinces ou des régions où les Shorthorns est plus difficile à trouver. D’autres ne 8

CMSS Improver 2021

veulent pas commencer avec n’importe quelle qualité de bétail, mais aimeraient investir dans la génétique qui devrait fonder une bonne famille de base pour leur troupeau. En conséquence, la Société a développé le nouveau programme d’expansion des embryons qui a été lancé en mai et les candidatures doivent être déposées à la fin du mois de juin.

Des détails supplémentaires sur ce programme sont décrits plus loin dans Improver, mais j’encourage tout éleveur de Shorthorn Laitier nouveau ou potentiel à envisager de postuler à ce programme. Je ne peux penser à aucune meilleure façon d’établir un élément de Shorthorn Laitier dans votre troupeau!

Grâce au COVID-19, la Société a dû s’adapter à la volée au cours de la dernière année. Notre AGA a été mise en ligne en 2020 et nous ferons de même cet été le 17 juillet. J’encourage tous les membres à ouvrir une session et à participer à notre AGA cette année et à entendre parler du travail que fait la SCSL. L’année dernière, nous avons également lancé une nouvelle exposition nationale virtuelle pour la première fois, et nous avons eu la participation d’un certain nombre d’éleveurs à travers le pays, y compris certaines fermes qui ne sont normalement pas présentées à notre exposition nationale à Lindsay. Pour 2021, nous prévoyons d’organiser une exposition nationale en personne à Lindsay le 18 septembre. J’espère que les conditions seront telles que de nombreux membres pourront participer ou simplement assister au salon.

En terminant, j’invite tous les membres de la SCSL et les fans de Shorthorn Laitier à trouver un moyen de nous aider à continuer de cultiver la race, tant en taille de population qu’en qualité. Cela pourrait être quelque chose d’aussi direct que de participer à des programmes d’amélioration de la race qui améliorent les évaluations génétiques, en particulier pour les preuves génétiques. Cela pourrait être de parler à votre voisin de la raison pour laquelle les Shorthorns Laitier ont une place dans votre troupeau. Cela pourrait être l’augmentation de la taille de votre petit troupeau par quelques génisses de l’un des troupeaux qui font la publicité dans ce journal annuel. Cela pourrait être aussi simple que de prendre des photos intéressantes de vos Shorthorns Laitier et de les partager avec moi pour les utiliser pour la promotion de la race. Tous les membres peuvent jouer un rôle dans le développement et l’amélioration de notre race, et de nombreux petits efforts peuvent conduire à des résultats significatifs.

Quebec Cow Sets New Single Lactation Breed Record for Protein Production The Milking Shorthorn breed is currently experiencing increased interest in the province of Quebec, and one of those Quebecois cows has just set a new breed record for single lactation protein production!

Serol Dutch Abrielle VG-88 recently completed her third lactation, producing 545 kg of protein in 305 days. She also produced an outstanding 15,652 kg of milk (third highest total all-time) and 781 kg fat (second highest total all-time) in the same lactation!

Abrielle is owned by Ferme Britannia S.E.N.C. of St-Valerien-deMilton, Quebec. She was purchased in 2016 as a two year old heifer in the herd dispersal of the Serol herd of Roxton Falls, Quebec. Ferme Britannia is owned and operated by Dominique Petit & Linda Provost and their son Yan-Éric Petit and his wife Marie-Eve Maher. Abrielle is the first Milking Shorthorn to be added to their mixed herd primarily composed of award-winning Canadienne cattle. (continued on page 57)

Vache de Québec établit un nouveau record de la race pour la production de protéines La race Shorthorn Laitier connaît actuellement un intérêt accru au Québec, et l’une de ces vaches québécoises vient d’établir un nouveau record de race pour la production de protéines en une seule lactation !

Serol Dutch Abrielle TB-88 a récemment terminé sa troisième lactation, produisant 545 kg de protéines en 305 jours. Elle a également produit 15 652 kg de lait (troisième plus haut total de tous les temps) et 781 kg de matières grasses (deuxième plus grand total de tous les temps) dans la même lactation!

Abrielle appartient à la Ferme Britannia S.E.N.C. de St-Valérien-deMilton, Québec. Elle a été achetée en 2016 comme génisse de deux ans dans la dispersion du troupeau de la Ferme Serol de Roxton Falls, Québec. La Ferme Britannia est détenue et exploitée par Dominique Petit et Linda Provost et leur fils Yan-Éric Petit et son épouse Marie-Eve Maher. Abrielle est la première Shorthorn Laitier à être ajoutée à leur troupeau mixte composé principalement de vaches Canadiennes.

Yan-Éric remarque qu’Abrielle s’intègre très bien dans leur troupeau.

«Elle est de taille moyenne, a été très productive avec des composantes élevées et s’est reproduite facilement en troisième lactation malgré une production si intense. Elle est de nouveau fraîche pour sa quatrième lactation.

Abrielle est née du taureau américain Sunshine Moneys Dutch. Sa mère TB-86 par Blissful Diamond Sam était également une productrice de haute composante pour Serge Girard et Carole Beauregard de la Ferme Serol. La grand-mère maternelle, Quality Ina TB-87, était également une productrice constante et a été jugée Mention Honorable de l’Expo Nationale en 2008.

Félicitations à la Ferme Britannia pour leur succès avec Abrielle. Un formidable exemple du potentiel de production des Shorthorns Laitier modernes au Canada!

Proposed Bylaw Amendment: The following amendment to the CMSS bylaws will be presented and discussed at the CMSS AGM on Saturday, July 17th via Zoom.

Current section: 20.3. To be registered as purebred, animals must have colours consistent with the Milking Shorthorn breed: red, white, red and white, red with white markings, roan, light roan, or dark roan. Animals with off-colours not consistent with the breed will be registered at a maximum percentage of 50%. These colours include black, black and white, and blue roan.

Animals with some amount of black hairs are eligible to be registered at their appropriate percentage by ancestry as long as the primary colour pattern is one of the approved colour designations.

Proposed amendment: 20.3. Colours considered approved by the Milking Shorthorn breed are: red, white, red and white, red with white markings, roan, light roan, or dark roan. Animals registered with a colour other than these approved colours will be considered as “off-colour,” which will be denoted on the registration paper and in the herdbook with the code “OC.” Examples of off-colours include black, black and white, and blue roan. Animals with some amount of black hairs (less than 20% of hair) are eligible to be registered without an off-colour code as long as the primary colour pattern is one of the approved colour designations.

20.4. Animals registered as “off-colour” are not eligible to be exhibited in Society-sanctioned Milking Shorthorn shows.

Members with any questions about this proposed amendment are welcome to contact any of the CMSS directors or myself in advance of the AGM.

Changes to Milking Shorthorn Classification Scorecard The CMSS Board of Directors has approved some changes to the classification scorecard for the Milking Shorthorn breed, effective in early 2021. These changes were made necessary by the decision of Holstein Canada to divide the Feet & Legs section of the scorecard into Mobility and Foot sections.

In addition, the traits Front Legs View and Locomotion will now be included in the Mobility section for free-stall/loose housing herds. Locomotion will not be included for tie-stall herds.

Country Report: Australia

by Michael Tuhan, Illawarra Cattle Society of Australia With COVID restrictions in place for the past year, there is little to report from a shows point of view. The cancellation of International Dairy Week (IDW) in particular significantly restricted the ability to showcase the Illawarra breed to the public. Despite this, sales of Illawarra cattle have been met with extremely strong demand, with first time purchasers and relatively newer breeders tending to be more dominant at sales than established breeders. This is a great sign for the breed. The challenge for the Illawarra Cattle Society is to now convert these buyers into registered members.

Daughters of Oceanbrae Royal Bentley, Kuszmar Stroker Ace, and Glenbrook Queens Prince (sired by the UK bull Rodway Moses) are now calving in and we wait eagerly to see how these bulls perform under Australian conditions. Luckystrike-PP is another bull with daughters calved in that will be followed with interest given that the frequency of the polled gene within the Illawarra population is quite low.

Gorbro BT Sunsupreme, the Pingerly son of IDW Supreme Champion Wallumlands Sunstorm 8, is another young sire that now has milking daughters and early reports suggest that we can expect him to be an udder improver. Agrigene recently added his brother Storm Hunter (by Myrtleholme Hunt) to their team of bulls. There is also a Pixie’s Treble son currently under consideration for A.I. With high components and super udders being a feature of the maternal line, this bull will be one to watch out for in the near future.

Sales of both Ovensdale Jenny’s Tribute and Treeton Scarlet Zumba (A2A2) have been tremendous since they entered collection in 2020, indicating a definite high level of demand for these higher purity sires.

Scarlet Zumba being owned by ST Genetics has also opened up more extensive export opportunities.

While the prospect of genomic evaluations for Illawarras still appears to be some ways off, the breed is working toward starting to establish a genetic database. Working with ST we have plans in place to start genotyping select individuals, commencing with dams of bulls in AI and groups of daughters sired by proven bulls with high reliability.

CMSS Improver 2021

This will at least allow us to be in a reasonable position to capitalise on any advances in genomics for minor breeds that may eventuate. It was pleasing to be involved in a constructive Zoom meeting initiated by Ryan Barrett, involving representatives involved in Milking Shorthorn related breeds from around the globe. Collaboration is likely to be our best chance at achieving useful genomic information and continuing this dialogue amongst breed societies will give us the best chance of success.

CMSS launches Embryo Expansion Program The Canadian Milking Shorthorn Society is excited to unveil its new Embryo Expansion Program in an effort to make high-quality Milking Shorthorn genetics available to interested producers across Canada.

In this program, Canadian dairy producers will be invited to apply to the CMSS for an opportunity to purchase high-calibre Milking Shorthorn embryos sourced from leading herds at a subsidized cost. In the first year of the program, three producers will be selected (one producer each from Ontario, Quebec, and the rest of Canada) to purchase a group of four embryos at a subsidized price of $250/embryo direct from the Society. In addition, these successful applicants will also receive a free membership to the Society and 5 doses of semen on a CMSS Syndicates/ Semex sire.

Successful applicants will be chosen based on criteria including participation in breed improvement programs and interest in the Milking Shorthorn breed. Preference will be given to producers that do not currently have Milking Shorthorn cattle or that are very new to the breed.

According to CMSS President John Eccles, “the Embryo Expansion Program provides a unique opportunity for dairy producers who are interested in the Milking Shorthorn breed but unsure of where to start in terms of accessing high quality genetics. I want to thank CMSS Director William Roy-Dubuc for sparking the idea to develop this program. William is a relatively new Milking Shorthorn breeder and had a great idea to develop a program to encourage breed expansion.”

Application forms are available on the CMSS website or from the CMSS office. The deadline for entries is July 1st, 2021 and can be submitted to the CMSS office at milking.shorthorn@gmail.com.

For more information on this program, please contact Ryan Barrett, Secretary-Manager of the Canadian Milking Shorthorn Society.

Country Report: United States

by Brenda Damrow Gudex, AMSS Executive Secretary

Lands-Brook Chippewa EX-93-4E 2020 AMSS Cow of the Year and Brood Cow of the Year Not many positive things come to mind when I think of what many of us have gone through during the past year. The American Milking Shorthorn Society has had its share of hardships. We cancelled the 2020 National Convention as well as all National Show status for our five national shows due to COVID-19. While the struggles were at the forefront of all our minds, there were bright spots that ensured the resilience of the red, white and roan.

Overall output of registrations ended 2020 on a high note. More than 2,600 animals were registered, due in large part to the AMSS Board decision to hold a moratorium on overage registrations. Transfers remained steady even without the typical show and sale schedule.

The AMSS Board of Directors has also approved the Society’s move to the ABRI registry database. This decision was made to assist our breeders with more of their information needs as well as ease of registrations and efficiency of the program for our small office.

Many regions had shows planned by breeders. Large numbers were present, with the new Wisconsin State/Midwest Regional Show boasting numbers of over 100 head. The quality of these shows was evident with record numbers entered in the 2020 All American 42

CMSS Improver 2021

Contest.

The high demand for Milking Shorthorns has been evident with the spring sale successes. AMSS sponsored an online sale with the top prices between $4,000-$5,000 for great quality show calves. Sales in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin boasted sale toppers over $7,000. The high demand for quality show heifers is a great outlook for the fall show season.

AMSS continues to utilize USLGE funding through different projects.

With international travel deferred due to covid restrictions, the society will focus on international advertising this year. The 2021 Sire Catalog is also possible with the utilization of USLGE funding.

Wisconsin will host the 2021 National Milking Shorthorn Convention in June, marking the 100th Annual Meeting of the American Milking Shorthorn Society. There is much excitement as we host an in person event, complete with National Junior Heifer Show and National Sale.

We wish the best for our Milking Shorthorn friends in Canada as we all navigate challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We look forward to resuming travel and future collaboration between our two Societies.

Country Report: United Kingdom Ros Rimmer, Secretary, Shorthorn Society of the UK & Ireland 2020, it has been the year of highs and lows for many of us, the show season had no sooner begun then it had ended, but how many of us thought it would continue until the end of the year and into 2021. The social side of the agricultural shows have been missed intensely by many in the industry, it has always been a time to catch up with old friends and make news ones, I hope we will see them return in 2021 in some format.

On a positive note, the society team have remained positive and passionate and keep seeking opportunities to promote the breed as and when they can. With great relief I can report that the finances were very stable in 2019, and it is looking like the 2020 financials will be another stable year. As I write this report registrations continue to remain 20% up on last year, and new members are up three-fold on the previous year, new members have joined throughout the country from Argyll to Devon. It is great to see that the breed is having a resurgence, long may it continue, I believe a lot of it is due the Shorthorns sustainable and environmental benefits, as well as the strong attributes required for grazing-based systems.

This years AGM was a virtual one where Seimon Thomas handed over the presidency to Mr Dennis Craig and Mr David Winnington accepted the role of Vice President. Seimon has been a pleasure to work with and I thank him for all his support, I look forward to working with Dennis and David going forward.

The Collins Family had an outstanding achievement as Churchroyd Heather 50 out of Churchroyd Heather 29 both classified EX97 – never in any breed has a 97 point cow been bred by a 97 point cow – what an amazing result for the breed.

Cotonhall Tuck Clarissa was Champion at UK Dairy Expo back in March 2020, it was exhibitor Rob Kites first time of showing at UK Dairy Expo and he took home Champion, Reserve and Junior Championship. The shows are such a great shop window for the breed and I hope we can 44

CMSS Improver 2021

get back out showing in the not too distant future!

Our sister company Shorthorn Sires UK Ltd remains the best choice for Dairy Shorthorn genetics in the UK. Sexed semen has been hugely popular again this year, Bushmills Jazz, out of Marleycote Princess Jill 31 EX95, sold out like hotcakes and has been hugely popular in conventional straws after the first batch of calves hit the ground.

Churchroyd Pure Class, out of the EX97 Churchroyd Heather 50 is also proving popular for type and is a sexed bull selling extremely well.

Our latest sexed bull Oxton Fever is already selling fast thanks to his sire`s high proof for type combined with his dam’s high production and milk solids, she is currently milking in her tenth lactation on an organic system. The committee are always looking for the next top genetics so watch this space for our latest news and new arrivals!

The big supermarket Morrisons Dairy Beef Scheme continues to grow, and we appreciate Morrison’s assistance in helping us to source the required Beef Semen for us to sell.

Plans for the 2022 World Conference continue to take shape as the committee eagerly wait to see how COVID situation pans out before finalising details. We hope to see many of you in attendance for what looks to be a fantastic Shorthorn tour.

La Société Canadienne de Shorthorn Laitier lance un programme d’expansion des embryons La Société Canadienne de Shorthorn Laitier est ravie de dévoiler son nouveau programme d’expansion d’embryons dans le but de mettre à la disposition des producteurs intéressés du Canada des génétiques de Shorthorn Laitier de haute qualité.

Dans le cadre de ce programme, les producteurs laitiers canadiens seront invités à présenter une demande à la Société pour avoir la possibilité d’acheter des embryons de Shorthorn Laitier de haut calibre provenant de troupeaux de premier plan à un coût subventionné. Au cours de la première année du programme, trois producteurs seront sélectionnés (un producteur chacun de l’Ontario, du Québec et du reste du Canada) pour acheter un groupe de quatre embryons à un prix subventionné de 250 $ / embryon directement de la Société. De plus, ces candidats retenus recevront également une adhésion gratuite à la Société et 5 doses de semence sur un taureau CMSS Syndicates / Semex.

Les candidats retenus seront choisis en fonction de critères tels que la participation à des programmes d’amélioration de la race et l’intérêt pour la race Shorthorn Laitier. La préférence sera donnée aux producteurs qui n’ont pas actuellement de bovins Shorthorns Laitier ou qui sont très nouveaux dans la race.

Selon le président de la Société, John Eccles, « le programme d’expansion des embryons offre une opportunité unique aux producteurs laitiers qui s’intéressent à la race Shorthorn Laitier mais ne savent pas par où commencer pour accéder à des génétiques de haute qualité.

Je tiens à remercier le directeur de la SCSL, William Roy-Dubuc, d’avoir suscité l’idée de développer ce programme. William est un éleveur relativement nouveau et a eu une excellente idée de développer un programme pour encourager l’expansion de la race. » Les formulaires de demande sont maintenant disponibles sur le site Web de la Société. La date limite pour les inscriptions est le 1er juillet 2021 et peut être soumise au bureau de la SCSL à milking.shorthorn@gmail.com. Pour plus d’informations sur ce programme, veuillez contacter Ryan Barrett, secrétaire-gérant de la Société Canadienne de Shorthorn Laitier.

New Protein Champion (continued from page 16) Yan-Éric remarks that Abrielle has fit in very well in their herd. “She is a moderate size, has been very productive with high components, and bred back easily in third lactation despite milking so heavily. She is now milking again in fourth lactation.”

Abrielle is sired by the American bull Sunshine Moneys Dutch. Her Very Good 86 point dam by Blissful Diamond Sam was also a high component producer for Serge Girard and Carole Beauregard of Ferme Serol. The maternal grand-dam, Quality Ina VG-87, was also a consistent producer and was Honourable Mention Grand Champion at the National Show in 2008.

Congratulations to Ferme Britannia on their success with Abrielle. A tremendous example of the production potential of modern Canadian Milking Shorthorns!

Rapport du Président par John Eccles, Président de la SCSL Salutations à vous tous, les amis de la Shorthorn Laitier, au nom du conseil d’administration de la SCSL. J’espère que vous serez tous heureux et en bonne santé. L’année 2021 est bien sur nous maintenant et l’aventure de COVID que 2020 nous a apportée s’est poursuivie, mais a montré des aperçus d’une certaine résolution.

Espérons que tôt ou tard, nous pourrons nous réunir à nouveau en personne un jour de fin juillet pour la nourriture, la camaraderie et les Shorthorns. Cependant, cette année, nous nous réunirons à nouveau virtuellement pour notre AGA. Pour le moment, il y a encore des plans pour une exposition nationale à Lindsay. J’espère que vous serez nombreux à nous rejoindre et à participer à ces événements. Merci à tous ceux qui ont fait de notre programmation modifiée en 2020 un succès.

Dans notre race relativement petite, nous avons eu besoin de «tout le monde sur le pont» et vous n’avez pas déçu.

Je tiens également à féliciter nos membres qui proposent de nouvelles idées pour promouvoir et développer la race. Espérons que les graines que vous avez plantées pousseront et se propageront dans de nouvelles occasions de démontrer la valeur de notre Shorthorn Laitier canadien dans un marché en constante évolution.

Dans une société et une industrie qui demandent efficacité, durabilité et un produit nutritif, nous avons la réponse! C’est pourquoi il est si bon de posséder le rouge, le blanc et le rouan!
