IHFA National Herds Competition 2020 – Results
In association with Greenvale Animal Feeds
Like everything else this year, our National Herds Competition had to be done a little differently. Due to travel restrictions and Covid protocols, herds in this year’s competition herds were judged on production and classification. In total 41 herds participated. Herds were entered by their clubs on the basis of successful performance at club level the previous year.
Congratulations to the winners of this year’s competition and well done to all who took part.
