Important Notice to VendorsARRIVAL OF STOCK: As per timetable of events (page 6).

PRE-SALE INSPECTION: All animals entered for the sale must be available for inspection in the Sale Premises as per the timetable of events. An Official Inspector, appointed by the Sale Society may order the rejection of any animal which, in his opinion, is below the required standard of conformation and / or condition and does not represent a good specimen of the Breed.

IF THE INSPECTORS CONSIDER THERE HAS BEEN ANY PRE-INSPECTION PREPERATION DESIGNED TO DISGUISE AN UNACCEPTABLE CONDITION THAT ANIMAL WILL BE REJECTED.

VETERINARY INSPECTION: The Veterinary Officer will examine all animals forward for general, health and genetic defects, and any animal with a genetic fault, disease or disorder will be REJECTED. Animals will be placed in a crush for this inspection - as required by the Veterinary Officer. The Veterinary Inspection will form an integral part of the pre-sale inspection procedure.

ANY ANIMAL REJECTED DURING THE PRE-SALE INSPECTION WILL BE OFFERED IN SALE ORDER, BUT ONLY AT THE AUCTIONEERS DISCRETION.

CARDS WILL BE DISPLAYED ABOVE ALL REJECTED STOCK WITH REASON FOR REJECTION.

ALL BULLS - entered for the Sale MUST HAVE ACHIEVED A MINIMUM WEIGHT OF 500KG AT THE TIME OF SALE and Vendors will be responsible for the provision of certification of such minimum weight to the Panel of Inspectors, if required. The Panel may order any bull to be weighed in the sale premises. Vendors are also reminded that “All bulls over the age of 12 months shall be ringed”.

All animals must be adequately trained to lead by halter, and all females must be equipped with nose clips and additionally the inspectors have been instructed to reject any female showing poor or doubtful temperament. Evidence of faults of temperament, vices, etc., may lead to disqualification.

The Showing of Bulls is Not Compulsory.

IDENTIFICATION MARKS - The identification marks of all animals will be examined in the Sale Premises and any animal found to have faulty or illegible marks will be rejected from the Sale. Vendors are therefore recommended to check carefully the identification marks of all their entries WELL IN ADVANCE of the Sale, and to advise the Society in the event of any fault being found.

THE ATTENTION OF VENDORS IS DRAWN TO THE SOCIETY’S RULE BY WHICH NO ANIMAL ONCE CATALOGUED MAY BE WITHDRAWN FROM THE SALE WITHOUT GOOD REASON, ACCEPTABLE TO THE COUNCIL. A SUMMARY FINE OF £50 WILL BE IMPOSED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE SOCIETY UPON ANY EXHIBITOR WHO INFRINGES THIS RULE.

The proceeds of sale are guaranteed by the Auctioneers, who will account to Vendors on the day of the Sale. Such guarantee, however, does not extend to the animals sold for export, to which special conditions apply.

MINIMUM SELLING PRICE - There will be a Minimum Selling Price of 1,500 guineas on each bull presented for sale - i.e. if no opening bid of 1,500gs is received for any particular lot, that lot will be passed out of the ring unsold.

Profit from EBVSA great new tool is now available to beef producers and breeders to help them select productive breeding animals with confidence. This development comes as part of MLC’s “Beef breeder” Service.

Records on breeding animals are now presented as ESTIMATED BREEDING VALUES (EBVs) and these describe the animal and how it will breed. EBVs are the recognised method for describing beef cattle performance and are now widely used in many leading cattle countries.

EBVs are quoted in the measuring units e.g. kg.

These are various key features:

● All Comparisons are against a base figure for the breed. The average of the breed in 1980 was chosen, where the average is described as zero.

● Any animal with a plus value is above the breed base (heavier, fatter, more muscled, etc.) and any animal with a minus value is below the breed base (lighter, less fat or less muscular, etc.)

● The EBVs are built up from records on the animal concerned, its parents, offspring (if any) and other relatives. So, they are very robust. Using EBVs takes out the confusing effects of different managements, herds, seasons and years, so that animals can be compared across a breed with confidence.

Measures with very low (less than 20 per cent)levels of accuracy are not published.

With Britain set to take centre stage this year, we celebrate all rural Britain has to offer.

PPA EDITORIAL CAMPAIGN OF THE YEAR WINNER 2008 AND 2011

WWW.FARMERSGUARDIAN.COM

By Alistair Driver

FARMING Minister Jim Paice haschallenged British farmers to ‘setthe industry on fire’by leaving thepast behind and embracing theopportunities on offer in today’smarketplace.

Speaking at the Oxford Farm-ing Conference, Mr Paice laid outhis vision for British farmingbased on seeking out new globalmarkets, innovating using allavailable technologies and ulti-mately thriving without the support of direct subsidies.

He also revealed Defra wouldbe hosting an ‘innovation summit’in London in March followed by aseries of ‘practical’regional events.

He dismissed the view of farm-ing ‘as a quaint old industry’ andurged farmers to look to the future.

“We can keep the cosy image of Buttercup in the field produc-ing a few litres a day and the bucolic farmer leaning on his gateWe can sentimentalise farmers assmall players in a market domi-nated by supermarkets at homeand multinational conglomeratesabroad,”he said.

“Or we can set this industry onfire and take the opportunities andface the reality they provide.”

He insisted his comments werenot about advocating ‘big, corpo-rate’ farms over ‘small, family’businesses: “It is about attitude:whether to pine for the old days ofgovernment intervention and pro-tection, or to face the challenges.”

At the heart of his speech wasthe need for the industry to use ‘thebest research, technology andknowledge transfer we can get’ tohelp boost production, while pro-tecting resources and biodiversity.

Driving ambitionMr Paice identified the Agricultureand Horticulture Develop-ment Board (AHDB) as the ‘professional body’ to drive the in-dustry forward in this area and hadasked AHDB chairman John God-frey to address how this could beachieved. He stressed the industryneeded to accept it was competingin a global food marketplace andto seek out export opportunities‘where we are most competitive’.

Shadow Defra Secretary MaryCreagh said food was ‘one of thedefining political issues of this cen-tury’, but criticised the Govern-ment for failing to address all theissues surrounding it.

Highlighting the role farmingand food can play in stimulatingeconomic recovery, she warned ofincreasing food poverty in the UKagainst a backdrop of rising foodprices, exacerbated, she claimed,by commodity speculation.

NFU president Peter Kendallsaid he was heartened by MrPaice’s message.
