6 De Heus Jersey Herd Competition 2015 Dr Johan Jooste All the planning was done by De Heus Animal Feed. Jersey herds from the North West and Eastern Free State participated in this competition. The Holstein herds were judged at the same time, showing the co-operation that is found amongst the diary breeds. Prizes were given within each breed. It was a strong competition with excellent Jerseys in all the herds. It was good to see both older and newer generations bulls perform and producing the winners. The production capacity and functional conformation of the cows are an indication of how well the breeding within the breed is going. It was a pleasure to judge this competition, especially with the good attitude that is present between all the participants. Excellent prizes were sponsored to the winners from the different herds.
