BRITISH CATTLE BREEDERS CLUB COMPETITION FOR YOUNG PEOPLE 2014’s multi-media competition is again open to ALL young people aged under 26. To enter they will need to produce a multi-media presentation of up to 10 minutes duration on the following topic: “Breeding to deliver high quality food to a hungry world”, themed from either a beef or dairy perspective.
