Here’s an idea from one of our blog visitors that I have found especially intriguing and would like to hear your comments on:

Junior Queen of the Breed Contest

In order for cows to be considered for this contest they must be bred and owned by a Junior member and the cow should still be alive.  The Junior would then write a short essay and list the cow’s qualifications in an effort to show why she should be queen!  For example, maybe the cow is 3E-93, made over 200,000M and has some great offspring.  Or maybe she is a great show cow who has transmitted genetics and has sons in AI. 

What do you think?  Would this be a fun and popular national contest?  Should it be open to those breeders who bred the cow while a Junior but have now graduated from the Junior Holstein program? 

Drop me a line with your thoughts - my email is sschmidt@dairybusiness.com.   Have a nice Tuesday!
