Master Breeders
T
ontario’s 2010
THE TITLE OF MASTER BREEDER IS ONE OF, IF NOT THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS AND SOUGHT AFTER AWARD AMONGST CANADIAN HOLSTEIN BREEDERS. The Master Breeder Shield is awarded to those breeders who consistently breed complete cows with a fine balance of type and production; cows that look pretty but work hard too; cows that epitomize the Canadian True Type Model while filling the milk tank and paying the bills. 20 breeders from across Canada were designated with the Master Breeder honour this year, with 12 of them coming from right here in Ontario! Congratulations to this year’s honourees!
