The challenges of Brexit, CAP reform and the environment are unknown quantities whose effects will reverberate well into the future. A free trade deal with the UK zero tariffs and zero quotas is looking unlikely. A cut in the CAP budget is certain, with a deficit in the EU budget following the departure of the UK. After 47 years as a member, the magnitude of this to be decided. Carbon constraints will also continue to be a reality. IHFA mission is that members’ farming systems are sustainable and in harmony with the environment, and are efficient and profitable to maintain the family farm into the future. The principal is based on maximum utilization of grazed grass and grass silage with homegrown and locally sourced forages to augment output from efficient long life cows producing wholesome food with cow wellbeing as the cornerstone. Sustainable farming systems require farmers to take stock of their practices in relation to animal welfare, enhancing water quality, increasing biodiversity and reducing the carbon footprint of their enterprises. Stepping up promotion of the breed, capturing the value of the Holstein Friesian breed for all dairy systems, will feature strongly throughout the coming year. This will involve extending the reach on social media, enhancing the IHFA website, continuation of national press advertising, local press and media. The Gold & Diamond Awards continue to recognise individual animal performance. The breed is further endorsed through the All Ireland Awards and Pedigree Cattle Breeders Association All

Star Awards promotion of herd and member achievements. Capturing feed efficiency through the use of conformation and linear scores as predictors is a current research project, which aims to show how it significantly drives efficiency. Analysis of data in the selection of superior animals with increased longevity will help reduce the carbon footprint with less heifers required for replacements. Field staff will be changing over to the latest handheld technology. These will generate more farmer friendly classification reports and will be more advanced as a breeding tool. IHFA are offering a herd pilot scheme to genomic test females. This will verify parentage where a number of bulls run with the herd. The pedigree certificate issued in compliance with EU legislation as of 1st November 2018 has been remodelled so that the pre-existing format is available on the reverse. IHFA is a patron of AgriAware. They promote the value of food and its farming origins to school children. This offers children a better appreciation of rural Ireland and how farmers produce wholesome food, while simultaneously caring for and protecting the environment. IHFA is a patron of Animal Health Ireland and supports all its initiatives. They provide a record of testing which offers assurance regarding stock sales. The national Johne’s Programme (IJCP) is now open to all dairy farmers and IHFA urge participation. An IBR programme is in the discussion phase.

CE foreword

SPRING 2020 The UCD Lyons Dairy Research Project will continue for a further three years. This is very desirable to help verify initial positive performance for the Holstein Friesian breed. IHFA are partners in the Vista Milk research project, which is carrying out research on the sustainability of our food production systems from soil to sewer. The first systems analysis has been completed on A2 milk. The health benefit claims in some international research is not proven, but may have a role in marketing. There is a busy schedule of events planned for breed promotion with the help of members, shows associations and the Holstein Friesian clubs. These events will provide a strong endorsement for the breed. Emerald Expo on 25th April will afford an opportunity for a young stock sale. The National Herds Competition will be judged in

early June.

the running of the event.

There are two open days planned. The National IHFA Holstein Friesian Open Day will be hosted by the Ballytigue herd of Aidan and Sally Ann Frawley and family, Bruree, Co. Limerick on the 1st July. The Irish Pure Friesian Club Open Day will be hosted by the Grenan Pure Friesian herd of Michael and Patrick Quealy, Kilmacthomas, Co. Waterford on Thursday 16th July. The YMA young breeders will again organize their calf show on 21st-22nd July. Regrettably, the venue of the Hub, Cilin Hill, Kilkenny is no longer available. However the mart facilities will be available and adopted to suit

The major shows, Tullamore National Livestock Show, Baileys Champion Cow and the National Dairy Show, alongside the National Ploughing Championship and the above events, will feature the qualities of the breed to a wide geographical audience. I wish to thank our sponsors for their endorsement of our events for the coming year. I wish to thank our staff at the office and in the field, who give dedicated service to the members while ensuring a high standard of professionalism. I also wish to thank our Chairman, Peter Ging, President, Patrick Gaynor, IHFA board and

President’s Address

Patrick Gaynor

It was a great honour for me, my family and for the Breffni Oriel Club to be nominated for the position of IHFA President. I am very proud to be the first President from county Cavan in the history of the Association. The Greenlea herd of Padraic Greenan & family, Co. Monaghan, hosted a herd visit in conjunction with the AGM being held in the club area. Visitors on the day were greeted with a warm welcome and a homely offering of tea and refreshments. My thanks to club members Edwin Bennet and Padraig Greenan who nominated me as President at the AGM. Dignitaries included the Cathaoirleach of Cavan County Council, Madeline Argue, who welcomed all visitors to Cavan for the occasion. My first official outing was to the Holstein Northern Ireland Club Open Day on Saturday 4th May at the Mitchell family’s Edenordinary Herd, Banbridge, County Down. The next evening brought the National Hall of Fame Awards in Athlone. I was delighted to be a part of this occasion, where the recipient of the Holstein Friesian Award was former IHFA Chairman and life-time dedicated breeder, Richard Whelan. I then attended the Balmoral Spring Show at the Eikon Centre, where I was delighted to meet breeders from both north and south of the border. Events in May included attending two club events, the Limerick Clare Club field evening hosted by the Rosstemple herd of John Curtin and family and also the Slaney club field evening hosted by the Hallow herd of Philip and Linda Jones & family. I was delighted to meet so many breeders

and industry personnel at the press launch of the IHFA National Open Day at the farm of Henry and Liam O’Keeffe’s Radney Herd in Freemount, Charleville, Co. Cork. Pure Friesian breeding was to the fore at the press launch of the Pure Friesian Club Open Day. Thanks to Peadar and Maureen Healy and family, Firoda herd, for the hospitality and warm welcome. Mary and I were delighted to attend the Kerry Club field evening hosted by John, Nora and Jack Walsh, Counguilla herd. The National Open Day hosted by Henry, Marie and Liam O’Keeffe & family was a fabulous success and thoroughly enjoyable occasion. At the end of June Mary and I enjoyed a very pleasant Sunday afternoon attending the North Eastern Club calf show taking place as part of the Flavours of Fingal show. Events and functions continued apace throughout July and August. A reception to launch the Diageo Baileys Champion Cow was held at Diageo H.Q. I had the pleasure of attending the Breffni Oriel Club calf show as President and it was heartening to witness continued enthusiasm of our dedicated Young Members. This encouraging enthusiasm was also very evident at the Kildare Club Calf Show. Mary and I were both very impressed by the beautiful venue location of Peamount. Friesian breeders gathered together for the Club Open Day at the Firoda herd, Castlecomer. The weather was perfectly timed with sunshine and warmth a welcome backdrop to a fabulous showcase of Pure Friesian breeding. The Danville herd of Jim and Michelle Mulhall & family was a beautiful setting for the Carlow Kilkenny Club field evening and club awards night the following

evening. From the 16th to 18th July, I attended the EHRC Judges’ Workshop at the Ballytigue Herd of Aidan and Sally Ann Frawley & family. This was attended by judges from all over Europe, despite the challenges of the unpredictable (Irish) weather the previous week. It was a very positive showcase of quality breeding with all 42 animals trained, prepared and presented to the highest standard, testament to the hosts and also the club members who helped enormously. If this is anything to go by, we will definitely have a fantastic Open Day at this herd later this year. We next travelled to The Hub in Kilkenny for an event very close to my own heart, the National YMA Finals. I believe the YMA is the future of the breed and I thoroughly enjoyed this unique twoday event. It is a showcase of how young people, when given an opportunity to organise and run a major event by themselves and for themselves, with IHFA admin assistance, are very capable of doing so. Well done and congratulations to all participants, and well done to fellow club members Rachel Corley who was crowned Champion Handler and Hollie Keenan who was Honourable Mention. I also attended Arva, Oldcastle and Longford shows as an exhibitor and was also given a warm welcome in my capacity as President of IHFA on these occasions. August was a very busy month of shows throughout the country and fortunately I was in a position to attend many including Castleblayney 7

Show, Fermanagh Count y Show, Tullamore National Livestock Show, Tydavnet Show and of course my local Virginia Show & the Diageo Baileys Champion Cow. A special mention to Edwin, Shauna and Setanta who ably took charge of our cattle preparations for showing throughout. The fact that we exhibited Champion Jersey at Tullamore National Livestock shows was very pleasing and great credit to the family for their work. Virginia Show and the lead-up to it was an especially busy period in the Gaynor household. Special credit and mention to Mary who retired from the role of Show Secretary following many years of hard work and dedication. Her kind and gracious few words at the reception afterwards struck a chord with so many. Mary and I were delighted to accept an invitation from the Cork club to attend the Club Barbeque with the results of the club Herds Competition and presentation of prizes. Mary and I received a very warm welcome and enjoyed great hospitality. In September we flew to Birmingham to attend the UK Dairy Day. It was like a home from home with all the Irish people we met. I was delighted to represent IHFA at this major event. The following week I spent three very enjoyable days at the National Ploughing Championships in Fenagh Co. Carlow. This is definitely one of the highlights from my year as it combines two things I love - good cows and talking to people about good cow! In September I attended the launch of the book ‘From Landlord to Genetics’ at Dovea AI headquarters near Thurles. The National Dairy Show, Millstreet, in October was a major highlight event. The YMA were again to the fore with three

really enjoyable and strong classes for Handling on the evening prior to the show. The quality of breeding on display throughout the Show was a superlative exhibition. A few rosettes won by the Mullaghlands herd heightened the enjoyment of the day and also seemed to shorten the journey home afterwards. In November I attended the Farmers Journal Dairy Day event in Punchestown. IHFA had a trade stand display and I was delighted to meet so many dairy farmers from across the country. In keeping with my efforts to go to an event organised by as many clubs as possible, I joined the Galway Club in November on their visit to Michael McDonnell & family Cannontown Herd. This was a very enjoyable and educational tour with lots to learn from a large-scale herd. Into December and it was Winter Fair time and again we travelled north where Mary and I were delighted to attend the Presidents Lunch on the day and also be part of a very successful show for IHFA breeders. C.E. Charles Gallagher and I interviewed a short-list of candidates nominated for YMA’s Presidents Medal. It was an eye-opener to hear from our talented Young Members recounting their achievements and setting out their views. We also interviewed final year students from Gurteen College as candidates for the IHFA Student Bursary. I was most impressed with the knowledge and technical understanding demonstrated by all candidates. In January the C.E., Chairman and I were delighted to accept an invite from Gurteen College to participate in the college graduation ceremony. We presented the IHFA Bursary to Niall Slattery and Sean Quinlan. Afterwards I enjoyed a guided tour of the college from lecturer, Richard Hamilton and I compliment the college in maintaining a high-calibre, registered Holstein Friesian herd. The following weekend Mary and I attended the IHFA Awards Night in Portlaoise, where I presented the President’s Medal to Louise Sinnott from the Slaney Club. This is a function I really enjoy every year, as it is a relaxed, social occasion where you get to talk to fellow breeders about our favourite subject – Holstein Friesian Cows. In February we returned to Portlaoise as the 8

venue for for the inaugural Pedigree Breeders AllStar Awards dinner where Lisnalty Megasire Rituel was the recipient of the IHFA award. I also attended the YMA AGM which took place again in Portlaoise and while I didn’t get to attend any of the Laois Offaly club events yet I think I have spent enough time in Portlaoise now to be called an honorary member! When writing this it is now into March and I am just back from the Donegal club Sale in Raphoe where business was brisk and prices very good. Unfortunately, our trip to the W.H.F.F. Conference was cancelled due to COVID-19. In these uncertain times it goes to show that sometimes external factors don’t allow too much planning ahead. I will hand over the reins to President-elect P.J. Kelly at the AGM in Mullingar on 6th May and I wish him well in the year ahead. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone I met along the way, on this wonderful journey over the past year. I won’t mention any names in case I inadvertently omit anyone. I especially want to thank my wife Mary who drove me all over the country when possible and my family without whom I wouldn’t have been able to carry-out the role or attend as many events as I did. I want to recognise the help and assistance given to me by Charles Gallagher, C.E. and the staff of IHFA who were tremendously supportive. There are only two clubs I didn’t get to visit over the year as the dates of their events clashed with another event and I apologise for that. I hope to make up for that before too long, even though my term as President will have expired. Once again, I want to thank all our members for their support over the last year and wish the new President and IHFA all the best for the coming year. Regards,

Patrick Gaynor

The Board of IHFA took a decision on the 30th October 2019 to not register clones or the progeny of clones. Therefore, check the ancestry of live animals and embryos before purchasing or importing. The process of cloning is banned in EU members states. The EU guidelines in line with consumer sentiment state that the processors of milk and meat must be informed by the breeder or owner, of such animals in the herd.

Tullamore National Livestock Show Tullamore, Co. Offaly (CANCELLED) Baileys Champion Cow, Virginia Show, Co. Cavan

Some EU herdbooks may register the progeny of clones and will warn their breeders of compliance issues. IHFA believes this leaves you, the member, and the Herdbook exposed. How is that warning communicated if/when progeny are sold on?

September 15 - 17 National Ploughing Championships October 17 Natioanl Dairy Show, Millstreet, Cork

The decision of the Board at present - not to register Clones or the progeny of Clones - is the correct decision as it respects the relationship between producer and consumer who trust that they are being sold wholesome food.

What is SRM??? SRM means that a bull is on the supplementary register. He is not pedigree. Please note, some bulls, although having an FR code may in fact be crossbred. Be Aware - Protect Your Herd’s Pedigree Status When choosing a sire from AI, do not assume that all bulls in AI are pedigree registered with IHFA. Always check with your provider before committing to purchasing straws. Refer to IHFA Recommended Bull List in the IHFA Journal and on www.ihfa.ie Why? In the past, all AI bulls were required to be classed as pedigree with the IHFA herdbook. This is no longer the case. SRM bulls may be up to 100% Holstein Friesian but are not backed by pedigree lines. How does this affect the status of offspring? If you use an SRM sire on a pedigree cow, the progeny do not qualify for pedigree status. How this affects future generations in the herd depends on the sex of the offspring. Female progeny will be graded ASR and generations of pedigree bred lines will be disrupted. The same does not apply for males. An SRM sire will result in male offspring being graded SRM. The consequences of this will impact future generations as EU Breeding Rules do not allow grading up through the male line. Male progeny from an SRM sire will always have SRM status! Males cannot grade up. Remember, SRM does not equal Pedigree! Pedigree breeders make huge investments in building on the pedigree of generations of animals in their herds. This can be lost by an uniformed choice of sire. Tell your AI provider that your herd is a pedigree herd and you are maintaining pedigree status for your animals. If a sire is not pedigree, he does not suit your herd or your investment.

Ballytigue Herd host IHFA Open Day by Donal Carey

National Holstein Friesian Open Day comes back to Co. Limerick in the heart of the Golden Vale The Ballytigue Holstein Friesian herd of Aidan and Sally Ann Frawley & family are delighted to welcome everyone to attend the IHFA National Open Day, being held at their farm on Wednesday 1st of July. Established as a new dairy herd in 2002 the Ballytigue herd is synonymous with quality breeding, strong cow families and efficiency of performance. National recognition of this quality in terms of production and conformation standards is such that the herd has consistently ranked in the top three of the IHFA National Herds Competition over the past three years. Prestigious Judges Choice Awards for inspection have also been conferred. Last year the herd, in conjunction with IHFA, successfully hosted the European Holstein & Red Holstein Confederation (EHRC) Judges’ School. This was the first time that Ireland has hosted this event and 39 high-calibre judges from across the continent competed. They judged seven classes

of animals from the herd, including six classes of milkers. The quality of stock turned out surpassed all expectations with the European judges being fulsome in their praise. This whets the appetite for what lies in store ahead of this year’s National IHFA Open Day. The Coolstar influence Aidan’s parents, John and Ann, established the Coolstar herd. Aidan grew up on the family farm in nearby Coolrea, and was very involved daily along with his brothers and sister Desmond, Brian, John and Georgina. All the family continue the strong tradition of farming. Participation in YMA locally and nationally and taking part in club field evenings and stock judgings played a big part in fuelling Aidan’s passion for quality breeding. He met Sally Ann, from nearby Kilmallock, and the couple married in 2001. They set about making their own family home with a separate herd, converting what was until then a beef unit at nearby Ballytigue. The Ballytigue prefix was registered with 35 heifers as the maiden herd and milk production began in 2002. The legacy of these heifers who laid the foundation is still very much pronounced in the herd today with the breeding lines continuing generation after generation.

Milk quota was purchased at every available opportunity in a continual quest to constantly develop and increase productivity. The adaptation of the The Frawley family hosted the EHRC Judging School 2019 in conjunction yard, buildings and facilities to suit with IHFA.

today is testament to the investment, with hard work and attention-to-detail along the way. Hosting the IHFA National Open Day is a landmark occasion for the family and Aidan and Sally Ann say that they are both proud and humbled to host what is a most prestigious event on behalf of all IHFA breeders. Their sons Séan and Conor are both boarding at Cistercian College, Roscrea with Séan studying for the Leaving Certificate and Conor studying for the Junior Certificate. Eldest daughter Laura is in St. Mary’s Secondary School, Charleville and the youngest, Áine, is in national school in Bruree. All are highly talented at sport, playing and particiating to a high level. Many titles and prizes have been won in GAA, rugby and athletics. Of course, all the children are very interested in the farm and they help out on a regular basis. Grassland emphasis and soil fertility importance A progressive management approach towards 17

soil fertility and grassland quality is an integral component of herd performance. Aidan emphasises the importance of regular soil fertility testing and adapting management strategies based on the results generated. He is quick to draw linkages between healthy, fertile soils, with increased yields of milk solids stemming from healthy animals grazing lush, dense pastures. 20 to 30 acres are reseeded annually and clover has consistently been included as part of the reseed mix for a number of years. Breeding policy and cow families The association between func tional conformation with lifetime productivity is clearly borne out in the herd. The selection policy is for solid cows with a natural will to milk. The importance of functional conformation to allow this genetic potential to be expressed and realised is closely aligned. IHFA conformation scoring through the classification and linear scoring system is a key management aid to benchmark progress and inform strategy decisions. The herd average classification score is VG87. Parameters of performance used as a benchmark include a goal for heifers to achieve 7,500kgs milk in their first lactation with mature cows expected to yield over 10,000kgs milk per lactation. With the origin of the herd hailing from the initial herd of 35 heifers, the herd has been bolstered with some select purchases of choice cow families over the years. The increase in herd size was achieved organically, aided by the strong longevity and lifetime productivity of successful families.

Teresa Roche’s Kylemore Cheese adding unique value to the Kilmora Pedigree Registered Herd When your list of customers includes such names as the five star, opulent and luxurious Ashford Castle Hotel and celebrity chef and renowned restaurateur Nevin McGuire, to name just a few, it is vindication that your signature food product is something very special indeed. Such is the niche that inspirational entrepreneur and farming advocate Teresa Roche has carved out in a relatively short space of time for her wonderful Kylemore Cheese.

Kylemore is a washed-rind cheese that is carefully hand-made on the family farm, in a purposely-converted building situated just a few metres from the milking parlour. Taking inspiration from the premium Swiss cheeses renowned for their unique Alpine mountains-and-valleys influence, Teresa skillfully and methodically set about reimagining how to capture her own unique, valueadded brand. Using the high-quality milk produced by the family’s registered Holstein Friesian herd as the nutritious raw ingredient, it is nurtured by her craftsmanship and enhanced by naturally occurring interactions of dairy molecules over time. It is allowed over five months to mature then culminating into its distinctive heady mix of rich taste and depth of flavour. All the milk used in the manufacture of this award-winning cheese comes directly from the family’s Kilmora pedigree registered Holstein Friesian herd, currently milking 97 cows in total. Cows have been milked on the Roche family farm since 1962 when six pedigree cows from the Lahiffe family, Galway herd, Gort, were purchased. Teresa’s parents, Bertie and Julie, established the Kilmora herd in the early 1980s, setting up their own herd and as Bertie wisely reflects “The cows never did us any harm anyway. We were able to rear and educate our four children, Sara, Teresa, Brian and Cathal”. The herd has been milk recorded every year 20

since 1962 and Bertie vividly recalls the regular laborious task of weighing the milk. Julie took care of all paperwork and administration, judiciously maintaining records and completing the herdbook registrations. The development of the herd was helped by the purchase of successful stock from herds such as Milkhill (Roger McCarthy), Knockanemore (Edward Sheehan), Findale (Peter Finnegan) and Rhinn (John Finn). These cow families are the backbone of the herd today. A number of bulls purchased at IHFA Premier Bull Sales over the years helped bolster herd performance and further development. Average milk recorded performance last year was 9,041kgs milk, 3.49% fat, 3.51% protein, 632kgs milk solids (305d). There are 28 VG/EX cows scored on IHFA classification in the herd including Kilmora Reary Lottie 3 VG86 in her 10th lactation, Kilmora Joy 3 EX92 3E in her 7th lactation and Kilmora Daffodil EX in her 8th lactation.

Assurance and Heritage

When asked what does herd pedigree status confer to the overall operation, Teresa replies “It adds more depth to the story, it provides independent verification and it proves your point”. Having qualified as a nurse, Teresa travelled the world for fifteen years working in the UK, USA, Australia and New Zealand. It was a period of hard work, regularly at the coal-face of life and death, nursing on intensive care units and

skin cancer wards. A particularly enrichening experience was time spent among the indigenous Maori community in the Waikato region of New Zealand where Teresa was struck by successful food-based niche businesses. A return home for a supposed regular holiday in 2015 proved to be a turning point with Teresa’s life set to alter, professionally and otherwise. She describes how her path dramatically changed course; “I became very conscious of the long-term viability of the farm into the future. What could be done to give future generations the opportunity to continue farming the land? Watching the lorry tanker drive into the yard and collect the milk from the tank to be taken away and then sold by supermarket chains for below its worth, considering the toil and graft involved in its production and harvesting was a soulless experience for me – it diminished our hard work. “My parents, similar to most other farming families were not getting their just recompense for their lifetime’s hard work and dedication. Could I make an intervention to rejuvenate the farming unit? From looking at it dispassionately all the 21

ingredients were right; a pedigree registered herd, grazed grass being the vast bulk of the diet, a family linkage with farming the land over many generations and 250 years at least. I was creatively thinking of ways to build a food brand around all these important elements to tell a unique story”. For a number of years previously the Kilmora herd was supplying a quantity of milk to local cheese maker Marion Roeleveld of Killeen Farmhouse Cheese. Teresa spent some invaluable time working with Marion and her burning passion to develop an artisan farming product crystallised. The next step was to further her quest for knowledge. She completed a course in the UK from The School of Artisan Food in Cheesemaking and subsequently travelled to Switzerland to work alongside and learn from cheesemakers steeped in the craft of producing globally renowned Alpine cheeses. Teresa then completed a number of business start-up courses and mentoring programmes led by established industry figures to help boost her business management credentials. Notwithstanding some setbacks, the October 2017 completion of a building project to convert

October while the cows are grazing full time. The quality of this Swissstyle cheese is extremely sensitive to the composition of the milk, a relationship directly derived from the diet of the cows. Manufacturing, which is all done by hand, continues right throughout these grazing months while the minimum fivemonth maturing phase for every wheel of cheese maintains inventory for sale throughout the year.

Biodiversity Conscious of nature and biodiversity, Teresa also maintains a beehive population to enhance the symbiotic relationship of dairy farming in harmony with the environment.

a former sheep shed in the farmyard into a modern manufacturing facility to begin production of Kylemore Cheese was a turning point in the realisation of Teresa’s most admirable project. The support and backing from parents Bertie and Julia has been rock solid. They have consistently stepped up to the plate to support and help Teresa to pursue her dream. An example of this occurred when the planned purchase of cheese vats for the new manufacturing unit were unfortunately on hold due to budget over-runs elsewhere. Bertie and Julia took the decision to immediately bring forward the sale of the farm’s thirteen Hereford cross calves and the money raised purchased the vats. Farming in the foothills of the Slieve Aughty mountains, this area of natural beauty gives unique provenance to Kylemore Cheese. Manufacturing can only occur during the months of April to 22

Women in farming, farm diversification, education around where food comes from and the positive role farmers contribute in maintaining the environment are further passions of Teresa’s. There are plans to host visitor groups to the farm on these topics and already numerous schools and university groups have been to visit and witness first-hand. Teresa is especially passionate about progressing women in farming and inspiring young girls to pursue and follow their goals and ambitions within agriculture. The local Galway Friesian Breeders Club is a valued local outlet. Bertie was one of the founding members and he was to the fore in the club’s rejuvenation. The herd previously hosted a club stock judging. Teresa is currently the club secretary and she has found this role to be a very beneficial forum to get to know a circle of farmers with a passion for cows locally after her extended time abroad. Teresa won the Club’s Senior Stock Judging competition last year – a matter of friendly banter and healthy bragging rights within the family. For certain, Teresa is a shining star in the west. Kylemore cheese is available from a number of food retailers and gourmet stockists throughout the country.

Starting from scratch with a purchased farm, 40,000-gallon quota & 37 bought-in cows in 2004. Gradually growing to 159 cow high calibre herd and winning Reserve Supreme Champion at National Dairy Show 2019!

Barna Fact File Michael and Elizabeth McNamara and their daughters Rachel and Emma. Both Michael and Elizabeth are qualified farm managers 80 acre dairy farm purchased in 2004 with a 40,000 gallon quota starting base. From an initial outlay of 37 purchased cows the herd has gradually expanded up to 200 cows calved-in annually with surplus offered for sale. All spring calving. 2019 milk recorded data 159 cows averaging 8,905kgs milk, 657kgs milk solids (305 d) 92 cows scored VG/EX Stellar YMA participation and Limerick Clare Club involvement Located at Barna, Newtownshandrum in North Cork, approx. 7kms west of Charleville.

Combined family effort, IHFA and YMA involvement with sharp management expertise - a recipe for success! writes Donal Carey “An utterly magical feeling and indescribable emotion of joy and pride” is how Michael and Elizabeth McNamara describe the moments during the National Dairy Show, Millstreet on October 19th last, when their 3rd lactation Woodmarsh Cancun Lyme 2 EX92 was placed 1st 5 Year Old Cow In Milk and Best Udder, and then went on to be crowned Reserve Supreme Champion. “We just wanted to have her looking her best on the day. After that there was no expectation 30

at all.” says Michael. “To then win her class and go on to compete in the Championship alongside the cream of the crop, that just surpassed our wildest expectations”. Michael attended his first Dairy show in 1991 and has attended every year for the past twentyeight years. The family began exhibiting in 2006 and have participated every year since. Success has been enjoyed along the way, however the crowning moments of last year will live long in the treasured memory for Michael, Elizabeth and their daughters Rachel (22) and Emma (20).

Aside from this NDS success, the family have also literally experienced their own dreams coming true with the undoubted success transforming what was originally a fledgling farm into a high output, high productivity, efficient and modern dairy unit. Michael, originally from Caherconlish, East Limerick, has a background in showing pedigree Simmentals, and Elizabeth from Dromina, North Cork, are both qualified farm managers whose paths crossed while attending the Royal Show, Stoneleigh. Coincidentally, both had graduated from Salesian Agricultural College, Pallaskenry, though

and helpful to us. Recognising us as novices, they gave us great encouragement and it really helped Rachel and Emma to go further. Rickey Barrett is another who was also very helpful to us. “Aiming to have stock looking well for the shows meant that we had to be focused a long time in advance, conscious of conformation, quality, handling practice, growth rates, overall health and so on. The knock-on of this was a steady improvement in overall performance over the years. These things don’t just fall into place the day before the show.” laughs Michael. Emma’s first outing showing at the National Dairy Show in different years. Elizabeth’s management career included four years working on the Mountalto Herd of past IHFA President John Kearney (RIP). On the look-out for an opportunity to make their own dairy ambitions a reality, an opportunity arose in early 2004, when an interesting farm was put on the market. They grasped the opportunity with both hands and settled into their new family farm home near Munster’s Golden Vale.

“I attended my first National Dairy Show in 1991 which was the year Ullswater Sunray 107 EX was Champion, exhibited by Jimmy Hannan (RIP) and family. Coming from a beef and dairy herd at home, with limited initial dairy experience, the quality of the stock on show that day left a huge impression on me”.

Transformative changes from start-up made a reality With an impressive display of determination, hard work, graft, skill and business acumen, a strategy of measured and organic herd growth over time was pursued. Michael explains “We aimed to increase cow numbers by ten each year. The financing of buying cows was helped by the purchase and then selling on of beef calves. Over time, fortuitously, an additional block of land became available next door which we took up in a lease arrangement. This block had the effect of increasing the grazing platform considerably”.

Showing is the shared passion for all the family, working together as a team during show preparation These shared moments together are treasured. The family exhibit at all local shows annually, as well as some national shows, where possible. Many happy occasions exhibiting at Newcastlewest, Limerick and Cappamore Shows, to name a few, have been enjoyed. “Local shows are where it all started for us. Being relative newcomers when starting out, the local shows gave us a connection with likeminded people. In particular I can recall one year at Newcastlewest Show where Donal and Kathleen Neville & family, Emerald Herd, were so welcoming 32

that in order to climb the ladder further, that first step was so important. With finances constrained we could not afford to be taking a punt with our purchases. The pedigree cert with its detailed information provided assurances of performance and traceability.”

Emma McNamara placed in the top three of her Handling class of the YMA Finals 2019 The local Charleville shows holds a vaulted place of endearment for the family. Elizabeth says “Compliments to Tim Broderick, Chairman of the dairy committee, the quality of Charleville Show is such that it attracts the top cattle in the country every year with some viewing it as a forerunner to All Ireland credentials at the National Dairy Show later in the year”. Michael’s brother John is a member of the dairy organising committee. Kieran Ahern, Elizabeth’s second cousin from Dromina, gives fabulous help showing calves for the family. In 2018, he was awarded the Judge’s Prize at the Limerick Clare Club Herds’ Competition. IHFA grade up, use of classification service and herd progress The Barna prefix was registered in 2005 and John Kirby visited soon after to complete the grade up process. Pedigree status gave the herd a solid foundation to build on. Michael says “It was the first step on the ladder and we knew

Elizabeth comments “We were clear in our minds as to the type of cow we knew would deliver results for us. Our preference is for cows with substance, balanced conformation and having a level of self-maintenance. Cows should have the ability to mature and develop into yields close to 2,000 gallons/lactation”. This clarity of breeding emphasis is evident with milk recorded average production last year of 8,905kgs milk, 4.02% fat, 3.36% protein, 657kgs milk solids. Heifers made up 35% of the herd last year indicating a future maturity of performance effect. Of the 42 cows in the herd of 4th lactation or older, they averaged 9,875kgs milk, 719kgs milk solids. This is all the more impressive with a calving interval average of 371 days. Michael notes “Classification helps identify the cows with the functionality required for longevity and lifetime productivity”. The fact that there are three 8th lactation cows in the herd all scored EX on conformation reiterates the point; Barna Archie Dundee EX91 3E, Barna RDX Cleana EX, Barna Hilda Rox EX. The bulk of the herd today can be traced to the cow families registered in the herd grade up. Purchases made over the years have added to the mix enhancing the depth of breeding. Examples of these families scored within the top two grades of IHFA classification include; Barna Shot Jessie 2 EX91 2E • Average recorded yield of 9,231kgs milk, 696kgs milk solids in 6 lactations to date. •

Tremendous fertility, calved as a heifer on January 22nd 2014 and calved regularly each year since, calving in with her 6th on February 12th this year.

Runner-up, Elite Spring herd, Limerick Clare Club Herds Competition

Successful YMA participation and Limerick Clare Club involvement Rachel and Emma are stellar role models as YMA members given their continual involvement from a very young age. Michael recalls a prior National YMA Rally hosted at Gurteen College, very soon after the girls joined YMA. Elizabeth accompanied the girls on the trip and returning home that evening, Michael was busy milking. Rachel ran into the parlour, bursting with her exciting news “Well Dad, that was far better than any sun holiday abroad”. Both girls immediately took to YMA, possessing not only a great interest but also a natural flair. They have numerous titles to their names including Showmanship League winners, National Dairy Show Handling Championships, Clipping Competition prizes, Ag Analysis winners as part of the Limerick Clare Club team. They have also qualified to represent the club in the IHFA InterClub Stock Judging. Both have represented YMA abroad in European competition and performed to a very high level. As a team the girls clipped all the stock for all the local shows last year and they completed the majority of the clipping of Woodmarsh Cancun Lyme 2 EX92 for the National Dairy Show. Emma is completing her 2nd year studying at Gurteen College and is currently on placement with Clear-View Holsteins in Canada, a renowned showing herd. She recently completed the task of clipping the entire herd ahead of classification 35

inspection day! Rachel graduated from Institute of Technology Tralee with a Bachelors in Agriculture last year and a successful work experience placement with Bord Bia. The fact that the graduation took place the day prior to the Dairy Show was an unfortunate scheduling. Thankfully it was no deterrent from being out both days. Michael comments “We are very proud of the girls’ achievements and their talents”. Elizabeth surmises; “YMA has given Rachel and Emma life skills, learnings and experiences that will stand them in good stead long after their YMA age years”. The family first became aware of the Limerick Clare Club when a club field evening was taking place locally. “The emphasis on the night of appreciating good stock and judging skills together with a friendly, social aspect made us feel very welcome” says Michael. “Becoming members soon after, we haven’t looked back since. We were delighted to host a field evening in 2013 and also hosted a YMA workshop in the past which was open to all Munster. Taking part in the Herds Competition gives us a great benchmark to work towards and of course it is thanks to the success in 2018 that we went forward as a club representative last year, culminating in winning the Judges Choice Award in the National Herds Competition. The club is very dear to us and the Limerick Clare ‘one, two’ of success in the National Dairy Show Championship last year was a tremendous boost for all as evidenced in the euphoric group photo of club members, family and friends.” Michael, Elizabeth and family are looking forward to building on their sucess in the years ahead in their trademark personal, friendly and fun manner.

Obituary

Joan Lambert

In the early sixties, Dundrum was rezoned for development and the Lambert’s farm formed part of the Airfield Miniature Farm Complex, beside Dundrum Shopping Centre. Joan and Noel relocated to a farm out in the countryside in Tallaght, beside the now Square Shopping Centre. The passing of Joan Lambert (nee Williams) on January 12th marked the end of an era. Joan was a well-respected breeder, a keen stockwoman and a dear friend. Her enthusiasm for the breed extended beyond her own farm gate. Joan, along with her late husband Noel, was integral to the establishing of the North Eastern Club in 1976 and later the Kildare Club in 1980. Joan’s contribution to the running of the Kildare Club was immense. She served as its first President and then Secretary for over twenty years. She organised the club Herds Competition for 35 years as well as being chief scrutineer of our Stock Judging Competition since its inception. She had a drive for including and encouraging all members, and in particular the younger generation. She also prioritised promoting the breed and she did this by supporting the Kildare County Show in Athy as well as the National Spring Fair. Joan was born in Enniskerry, Co. Wicklow, on a mixed farm. She and Noel registered the Edenfarm prefix at their first farm in Edenfarm, Dundrum, in 1954. The Edenfarm herd included top pedigree stock from the best breeders north and south 37

In 1967, Easton House with a much bigger farm in Leixlip came on the market and the Lamberts bought it, continuing to develop their Edenfarm herd there. It was there they also erected the first milking parlour in the area. Over the years they held some on farm draft sales and also sold at club sales. Edenfarm stock were always highly sought after. Easton Farm was rezoned for development in the mid-nineties and the Lamberts dispersed their dairy herd and moved to Baltracey House near Maynooth. It was a smaller farm and they bred some pedigree Simmentals for some years, but their interest in Holstein Friesians never waned. Joan was President of IHFA in 2003 and was honoured in 2010 with the National Hall of Fame Award for her contribution to the Holstein Friesian breed. On the occasion of the IHFA 50th Anniversary Year in 2015, Joan was presented with a memento on behalf of IHFA and Emerald Expo. We have lost a real stalwart. She will be greatly missed. May she rest in peace.

There was great interest again this year in the All Ireland Awards Competition introduced in 2010. We received 71 nominations in total. The competition is going from strength to strength and is a real talking point amongst breeders. Again we had strong representation from the Irish Pure Friesians. I wish to thank all competitors who took the time and effort to picture and enter their animals. The awards were announced and presented at a special function on the 31st January at The Killeshin Hotel, Portlaoise, Co. Laois. The competition was based on submitting a photograph of a prized animal at a local or national show. There were ten classes of entries. 1. All Ireland Heifer Born After 1st Jan ‘19 2. All Ireland Heifer Born Between 1st July & 31st Dec ‘18 3. All Ireland Heifer Born Between 1st Jan & 30th June ‘18 4. All Ireland Heifer In Milk 5. All Ireland 3 Year Old Cow In Milk 6. All Ireland Junior Cow In Milk 7. All Ireland Mature Cow In Milk 8. All Ireland Irish Pure Friesian Heifer In Milk 9. All Ireland Irish Pure Friesian Cow In Milk The entries were scrutinized by a pre-selection panel of three judges who took into account the quality of the animal as photographed and their winning successes at various shows. There was a final selection of six photographs which were printed in the Winter Journal. The winning entries were based on the combined placings of 15 judges who adjudicated on the photographs in each class as they appeared in the Winter Journal. Judges were selected from the IHFA judges panel representing the broad geographical area of the country and on the basis that they had no entries in any of the classes. There was also an opportunity for members to send in their individual score card and take part in an Open Stock Judging Competition. I wish to thank everyone who submitted their photographs and helped make the competition a success. I also wish to thank our judges: David Boyd, Mervyn Eager, Brendan Gildea, Peter Ging, Robert Helen, Noel Hennessy, Michael Laffan, Charles McCandless, Tom Murphy, Bill O’Keeffe, Robert Shannon, Graeme Taylor, John Walsh, John Watson and Richard Whelan. Finally I wish to thank all the members for taking part in the stock judging.

All Ireland Awards 2020 Based on summer shows 2020 prize-winners and animal photo Signed entry form, pedigree cert with relevant class detail to be received in IHFA office by Friday 23rd October 2020 The All Ireland Awards are a judgement on the quality of an animal which has been exhibited within the show ring at recognised shows or events during the year of competition. This is not solely a photographic competition, although the quality of the photograph is considered in judging alongside show winnings during the year of the competition. Cows and heifers in-milk which are professionally photographed during the year but not shown, may be considered for a separate class depending on entries Rules: 1. To be eligible for entry the animal must be registered with IHFA and in the herd number of the IHFA member in accordance with the entry. In the case of a syndicate ownership one of the members to be a member of IHFA and the animal be registered In the herd number of an IHFA member of the syndicate. 2. All entries must be returned to the IHFA office on the official entry form, along with animal’s pedigree certificate and signed by the owner by the closing date. It is the responsibility of the owner/ exhibitor to enter the animal into the appropriate class of the competition. They must supply all the relevant show and pedigree information, plus a photo (side-view only), which must be attached to the entry form. IHFA does not automatically enter animals into the All Ireland Awards. Entry is solely the responsibility of the owner / exhibitor. 3.

Report by Donal Carey

Southern cows feature prominently once again at the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society (RUAS) Winter Fair 2019. Breeders from across Ireland made the journey to the Eikon Exhibition Centre at Balmoral Park, Lisburn, for the unique and festive atmosphere of the Winter Fair. Lisnalty Megasire Rituel won Holstein Champion, Exhibitor Bred Champion and she went on to be crowned Supreme Interbreed Champion for Paul Hannan & family, Friarstown, Crecora, Co. Limerick.

as Supreme Champion of both the National Dairy Show and the RUAS Winter Fair, a unique achievement. Exhibited by Paul Hannan with his wife Eileen and children Jane, Clare and Bill who were all very involved on the day. In his comments the judge stated “I love her quality. I really admire her overall cleanness, her bloom of udder and definition of ligament”.

Tubbertoby Armani Fleur won Reserve Holstein Champion and also Interbreed Honourable Mention for exhibitors Tubbertoby Holsteins. It was a Championship brimming with quality and style. Breeders from the south featured very strongly throughout the day and the large support helped boost overall numbers in what was described by organisers as “probably the largest Winter Fair in terms of total numbers of cattle and quality in quite a while”. Lisnalty Megasire Rituel concludes the year 52

Tubbertoby Armani Fleur - Holstein Reserve Champion, Interbred Hon. Mention and 1st Senior Cow In-Milk. She is pictured with Marguerite & Paul Flanagan and children Matthew, Ella and Thea and Danske Bank representatives Christine Adams and Seamus McCormick

She was 1st Junior Cow In Milk and also awarded best udder. It was a most successful return to the Winter Fair for this 2nd calver having won 1st Intermediate Heifer In Milk last year. She scored VG88 as a heifer on IHFA conformation and EX as a second calver, which is a maximum score. Calved with her 2nd since mid-October, Tubbertoby Armani Fleur in winning Reserve Champion, was one of the freshest cows exhibited at the Winter Fair. For Paul and Marguerite Flanagan & children Matthew, Thea and Ella it was a memorable day for all the family to savour as Fleur took the penultimate honours. She was 1st Senior Cow In Milk and was also awarded best udder. The judge commented

• Hallow Solomon Twizzle exhibited by Hallow Holsteins was Reserve Junior Champion. • Lumville M Danoise exhibited by Annaghmore Holsteins (N.I.) bred by Richard Whelan, Clonard, Co. Meath, was 1st Intermediate Heifer.

“I love her beautiful frame and overall length of body. Her chiselled body and snugness of fore udder gives her the advantage as my class winner.” As a heifer Tubbertoby Armani Fleur recorded 8,273kgs milk, 607kgs milk solids, 4.00% fat, 3.34% protein (305d). She scored VG87 on IHFA conformation as a 2 year old. Other success for southern breeders included: • Greenlea MG Rhapsody, exhibited by Padraic Greenan, 1st 3rd Calver. Hallow Attic Christina exhibited by Hallow Holsteins claimed 2nd place.

IHFA member herds win clean sweep at Dairy Genetic Merit Awards 2019 Carraig Herd

Winner of 100 cow herd & under category Robert and Sinead Frost, Killanena, Kilkishen, Co. Clare. Farming in the south east of the Banner County, the Carraig herd is home to Robert and Sinead Frost and their son Ruairí (aged 8), daughters Saoirse (aged 6) & Eanna (aged 4), with Robert’s mother Eileen also helping out on the farm. The herd consists of 80 milking cows, all spring calving with a total farm acreage of 100 acres. Co-Op performance report (2019) • 495kgs milk solids /cow • 4.22% fat • 3.64% protein • EBI €158

Fertility performance & longevity Compact calving herd with tremendous fertility performance. The calving pattern breakdown per month in 2019 was 90% within eight weeks. Just 6% of all cows and heifers were empty following last year’s breeding season. 47% of the herd consists of cows in 4th lactation or older. This is a very sizeable proportion and reflects longevity in abundance within the herd. Longevity means less replacements are required with a further gain from higher performance of mature yields. These mature cows had a milk recorded average performance of 8,100kgs milk, 3.96% fat, 3.56% protein, 609kgs milk solids (305d) SCC of 70. Robert’s late father, Gerard, sowed the

Two dairy awards were announced and presented at the ICBF Genetics Conference on January 17th last. Both winning herds are IHFA member herds. This is a further strong endorsement for Holstein Friesian genetics and efficiency of performance within the herdbook. From a shortlist of top performing herds nationally, the Carraig and Callinafercy pedigree registered herds emerged as respective category winners. Donal Carey provides an outline of both award-winning registered Holstein Friesian herds. seeds for modern and progressive dairying at Killanena, having always adopted many pioneering technologies and practices. Milk recording and the use of AI was commenced in the early 1980s. Robert has built on this heritage and he continues the strong tradition to help add value to the herd and the farming system. Robert comments “Pedigree status puts it in black and white, literally. It is a herd status which gives unique assurance of traceability. It is the only effective insurance policy available for cows. Grading up the herd to pedigree was an easy decision, it was the next logical step to take in moving the herd forward. The herd had accumulated a vast depth of records over so many years, combining milk recording and breeding. I decided a number of years ago to remain loyal to the breed and to continue to select from within to keep moving forward. Thankfully, over time this decision has been proved correct”. Established cow families in the herd includes Misty, Pearl, Nora, Kelly (same family as Arizonas from Ballyfree), Ruby, Bugler and Primrose. Carraig XTG Naomi • 2nd lactation recorded yield of 6,920kgs milk, 3.96% fat, 3.90% protein, 544kgs milk solids. Carraig FJM Nora 1118 • 2nd lactation recorded yield 7,344kgs milk, 4.26% fat, 3.81% protein, 593kgs milk solids. Carraig SEW Misty 1025 • 3rd lactation recorded yield 7,395kgs milk, 5.13% fat, 3.85% protein, 664kgs milk solids. Carraig AYW Misty • 3rd lactation recorded yield 8,162kgs milk, 4.01% fat, 3.85% protein, 642kgs milk solids. •

Due shortly to commence her 6th lactation with a consistent, regular calving interval every 55

year over the past five years. Carraig GZY Misty 1149 • 2nd lactation recorded yield 7,564kgs milk, 4.27% fat, 3.73% protein, 605kgs milk solids. •

Same grand dam as AYW Misty (above).

Carraig VML Misty • 5th lactation recorded yield 8,189kgs milk, 4.04% fat, 3.73% protein, 637kgs milk solids. • Seven lactations completed to date. Carraig XRY Tara • 5th lactation recorded yield 9,639kgs milk, 3.75% fat, 3.50% protein, 699kgs milk solids. Carraig PBM Primrose • 3rd lactation recorded yield 8,116kgs milk, 4.39% fat, 3.71% protein, 657kgs milk solids. Robert states that herd breeding policy is informed by benchmarking the herds performance with best available research. This includes applying various herd and individual performance reports. All heifer calves born are genomic tested every year for a number of years now. When a shortlist of AI sires is decided upon, Robert then finds it useful to research the lines of breeding behind each sire. He comments “It’s especially encouraging to select a bull with high figures on predicted genetic merit which is backed up by generations of consistent performance in his dam, grand dam and so on. The sire stack can be very informative in painting a picture of anticipated performance.” With a nod to continued self-improvement, Robert’s aim for the year ahead is to further hone his grassland management skills. A member of Pasture Base, he plans to ramp up involvement in the programme by interacting more frequently with measuring and inputting grass growth measurements.

Callinafercy Herd

Winner of over 100 cow category Eoghan and Sinead McCarthy and their children Niamh (aged 8) & Dylan (aged 6), Callinafercy, Milltown, Co. Kerry. 130 cow, compact spring calving herd in the Kingdom of Kerry. Breeding policy is to use PED status AI bulls only A lifetime of committed policy to breed cow conformation to suit the individual farming system is certainly paying dividends for the McCarthy’s Callinafercy herd. Having taken over the farm on a full-time basis from his late father in 2001, Eoghan continued to breed for the traits deemed most desirable and important for annual performance. Eoghan explains “My father used all AI breeding, no stock bulls. Historically the RBI, as the national index of that earlier era, tended to dominate the discussion around breeding. However, my father never placed emphasis on RBI. Instead he relied on his own stockmanship instinct for breeding decisions. The block-calving aspect of our herd coupled with a significant beef enterprise required a broader range of traits emphasis.” Eoghan explains “There has been much better compatibility with EBI as a breeding index suited to the herd and the purchase of additional quota in 2007 in conjunction with the cessation of the beef enterprise, brought herd performance up through the gears, progressing to new levels. The Holstein Friesian breed has been the mainstay of the herd throughout. It is my policy to use only pedigree status sires, in a breeding policy that continues with 100 % AI usage as in my father’s time.” The overall performance and quality of the Callinafercy herd is such that three bulls have been purchased by AI breeding companies to date; Callinafercy Sonny (FYC), Callinafercy Donald (FYO) and Callinafercy Lester (FR2235). The family farm is described as quite wet overall with half the total area under sea level. Soil fertility is a key aspect with regular soil testing carried out with reseeding, liming and targeted fertiliser application strategies adapted as such. Grassland 56

management and grazing performance is to a very high standard demonstrated by the fact that average meal feeding last year was 700 kgs/cow. Co-Op performance report (2019) • 500 kgs milk solids /cow • 4.35% fat • 3.71% protein • EBI €170 Fertility Performance & Longevity The calving pattern breakdown last year was 88% of all cows calved within eight weeks. A very successful 2019 breeding season resulted in an overall pregnancy rate of 92%. The tremendous fertility performance allows inherent longevity to manifest. A knock-on positive benefit is that the requirement for replacements coming through each year is reduced, opening up a revenue stream of surplus heifers offered for sale. Over 40% of the herd consists of cows in 4th lactation or older. The recorded performance of these mature cows last year averaged 7,327kgs milk, 4.40% fat, 3.69% protein, 593kgs milk solids (305d), SCC 48. For Eoghan, fertility performance is a result of not only breeding for fertility traits but also relies upon good management – a healthy, balanced herd and a targeted heat detection strategy with accurate records maintained and actioned accordingly. Eoghan credits the success of the herd to making informed decisions. The diversity and choice within the pedigree Holstein Friesian panel of AI sires is scrutinised to identify the best fit genetics ahead of the breeding season. Positive culling on performance is a key strategy. The many reports available are referenced in taking informed management decisions. Since 2012, all heifer calves are routinely genomic tested. The benefit according to Eoghan is that it brings more consistency to bull selection. “This works really well in my system. Test AI bulls were always used to a certain extent in the herd over many years. Having genomic information on both sides of the mating means that the G.S. sire is allocated more specifically than ever before. A check for inbreeding percentage is also applied. As such the herd now relies on genomic sires

entirely.” Eoghan continues, “The approach used is to pick a team of 7 or 8 bulls, never fewer, and this reliability approach helps guard as much as possible against inferior performance. Also, the policy is to broaden the genetic lines using no more than two bulls bred by the same sire. In my view this balanced team approach is essential when using genomic sires. Prominent cow families in the herd include Lulu, Candice, Patricia, Deirdre, Nuala, Ann, Sandy and Julia.

A Woman in a Man’s World

Deirdre Toal B. Ag. Sc.

“I’m a woman in a man’s world”

career pathway.

This is how Deirdre Toal describes working in the AI and cattle breeding sector. This is accurate at first-hand; however, it belies Deirdre’s continued position at the forefront of a fast-paced industry, a feat which she has uniquely carved out through initiative and determination, embracing change and new technologies allied to her approachable, warm and engaging personality. The cattle breeding and AI industry has been Deirdre’s point of reference since joining Progressive Genetics amidst a new dawn (in many senses) in 2002. However, this is only one chapter of the entire book since Deirdre’s story is one of a lifetime’s involvement in cattle breeding. Magherarney House outside picturesque Smithborough, Co. Monaghan, is home for Deirdre and husband Thomas Toal and their “two wee men” Seán (aged 11) and Barry (aged 7). The family farm is home to the Magherarney pedigree registered herd, shaped and developed by Thomas and his late father over many years. A distinct pedigree registered herd situated over 110kms away in Co. Roscommon was home to Deirdre’s formative years, undoubtedly providing the spark to light the flame towards her future professional 59

Home, in that returning sense, is the Slievebawn herd, established by parents Kevin and Eileen Gunn situated in Carrowclogher, outside Strokestown in Co. Roscommon. Deirdre was the second-born in a family of four who along with her siblings was always involved on the farm from a very young age. This was a formative upbringing in so many ways. Daily life revolved around the prized dairy herd, there was so much enjoyment and fun to be had helping out, rearing calves, milking and so on. For good measure there was a beef enterprise alongside the dairy herd, managed methodically by Deirdre’s late uncle Johnny (RIP). The family’s enjoyment and passion for pedigree Holstein Friesian breeding was enrichened by their active involvement in the local West Midlands Friesian Breeders Club. Eldest sister Maeve sadly passed away in 2006 a week before her 20th birthday – all the family still miss her greatly but acknowledge that both her happy, short life and coping with her loss have strengthened this family unit. All the siblings carried through on their early farming years by pursuing agriculture professionally

– Deirdre and Patti (Patricia) both graduated from UCD having studied Agricultural Science while Michael today continues the strong dairying tradition at home into the next generation with his wife Miriam and their family alongside his parents.

Competing as part of the West Midlands YMA Club

Highly talented from a young age, Deirdre broke the mould. She was a stalwart of YMA (Young Members Association) throughout her years in the IHFAdedicated youth organisation. Initially, she became involved through her local West Midlands Club events. She was conscientious in carrying out in her many officer roles, including National YMA Co-Ordinator, planning the many YMA events including the National Calf Show. She won the YMA Poster Competition, which was then judged at the National Open Day, and was short-listed for the Presidents Medal Award - travelling to the UK to be interviewed at the then society headquarters Scotsbridge House. National recognition for all her past contribution to YMA was crowned in 2005, when Deirdre was presented with the Hall of Fame Award, an achievement which she still cherishes to this day. Studying for her degree in Animal Science required a dedicated work experience component – a placement within the agriculture industry to gain a knowledge and insight into the sector. By dint of fate, a phone call to Bobby Franks, IHFA Field Officer, for advice and ideas on industry contacts to approach, resulted in a win-win outcome for both. At the time assistance was required in processing the many herds on the grade -up rota. For Bobby, the extra help was fortuitous with Deirdre initially tasked to grade-up herds in Cavan and Monaghan. It would later come to pass that the Breffni and Oriel counties would come calling as home on a permanent basis! Fate again played its part when Deirdre’s first professional post as a qualified B. Ag. (Sc) expired following the completion of a temporary, one year advisory contract as maternity leave cover. Eager to get back into the professional workforce, specifically in the dairy sector, Deirdre was prepared to patiently wait for discernible positions. As one door closed, another door opened up. A role within the AI industry working for North Eastern AI emerged and, like the opening of a window to let in fresh air, this job offer breathed new life into Deirdre’s professional career prospects. The job offer was a position based in Ballyhaise, Co. Cavan, however before Deirdre took up the role Progressive Genetics purchased North Eastern AI from then owners Lakeland Dairies, with North Eastern ceasing as an 60

place of which Deirdre was a member along with Richard Whelan, Dessie Dunleavy, David Boyd and Paul Flanagan. Under their stewardship a Spring Show was held for a number of years. The Emerald Expo now continues in this vein. Class sponsorship presentation at Emerald Expo, Virginia, Co. Cavan

entity. Notwithstanding the transformative changes within the newly expanded organisation, allied to the changes emerging following the establishment of a national database at ICBF at the same time, Deirdre set about her role offering AI breeding advice, services and products to the local dairy and beef farmers of the region. Sharing a house in Cavan with two fellow Ag. Science graduates also working in the industry was a steady home for the next while. Deirdre says that she was extremely blessed to have struck up what proved to be a lifelong friendship with Mary Rafferty, then Secretary of the local Breffni Oriel Friesian Breeders Club. Mary invited Deirdre to get involved in the club locally and the Rafferty household outside Monaghan town has been a fixture of continued welcoming to this Roscommon native. It was Mary’s suggestion to Deirdre to travel on a club tour to Holland in 2002 and visit the NRM National Show. This trip, led to Deirdre meeting Thomas Toal, fellow club member and progressive dairy farmer from Smithborough, Monaghan. Cupid had made its mark and the couple married in 2005. Deirdre was soon busily involved in the Breffni Oriel Club and she actively helped out taking on many roles. She served a term as the club representative on the IHFA Board. She also took on the role of PRO. As a member of the organising committee, Deirdre also undertook the Herds Competition Secretary role every second year, alternating with Mary Rafferty, then secretary. In the initiative to re-energise a national spring dairy show, a local committee was formed to carry the mantle so well served by the former RDS Spring Show. The concept of the North Eastern Spring Fair was hatched with an organising committee put in 61

With family life dynamically changing in recent years, Deirdre has found herself having to conscientiously manage and carefully compartmentalise work time, family time and other demands. For Thomas and herself it is important to equally share and enjoy the normal day-today routines of family life. A step back from club officer roles was taken to this effect while at the same time participating in and enjoying the many successful annual events of this with her husband Thomas and children, vibrant club. Deirdre Barry and Seán. Deirdre’s community spirit and determination to get tasks completed was bolstered recently by her involvement as Chairperson of a local parents’ committee that successfully applied for and was granted funding to construct a car park for the local Magherarney National School. With over 100 students in attendance there is now greater peace of mind and safety on a daily basis for all the community now that this essential facility is in place. Deirdre is positioned firmly at the cutting edge of the dairy breeding sector with Progressive Genetics. She has come a long way from her first venture into the industry as an educated, intelligent, grounded, open-minded talented and hard-working graduate of YMA. Via her unique journey starting from the Slievebawn herd, through YMA, UCD Ag. Science and taking in the Breffni Oriel Club and her Magherarney home along the way, Deirdre truly is a unique woman in agriculture.

Michael and Patrick Quealy, Grenan Pure Friesian Michael and Patrick Quealy & family Grenan Pure Friesian herd, will host the Pure Friesian Club Open Day on Thursday July 16th. Farming together as a partnership since the early 1990s, brothers Michael and Patrick are tremendous exponents of the Friesian breed. Their modern and progressive family farm is a fitting host of this special annual showcase event for the breed. Located just off the N25 Waterford-Dungarvan road with the villages of Kilmacthomas and Kilmeaden in near proximity, the farm is very conveniently placed in terms of location. Beef from the Dairy herd compliments the farming enterprise Dairying has always been a main focal point for the farm. Michael and Patrick are bringing sharper focus on breeding emphasis in recent times, implementing defined breeding plans, making select key purchase of cow families and also adopting IHFA classification service to help achieve desired herd production and quality benchmarks. An interseting and currently topical aspect of the farm is the beef enterprise, which is run sideby-side the dairy herd, where all male calves born are reared for finishing and sold to the factory under 30 months of age. Michael rears the calves 64

and manages the beef unit on an outside block. The impressive performance of the dairy herd in annual productivity, in combination with the successful beef enterprise, amounts to a very efficient farming system overall. It is testament to the unique attributes of the Pure Friesian. Longevity a strong feature of the Dairy herd Milk recording performance for the herd last year averaged 6,241kgs milk, 4.01% fat, 3.53% protein, 471kgs milk solids. The maturity and longevity hallmarks of the Friesian are borne out with 4th lactation cows or older making up 50% of the herd. Cows in this bracket averaged 6,689kgs milk, 503kgs milk solids. Today there are 26 cows in the herd of 6th lactation or older including three cows in their 10th lactation and two cows in their 11th lactation. Grading up the herd to pedigree status was an eye-opener in identifying the legacy breeding impact of cow families. Patrick states that pedigree status attainment was the key driver of grading up. However, there was an added bonus when the grade up process identified the strong cow families underpinning the herd over many decades. Patrick continues, “Over the years, the herd was always home-

Pure Friesian Open Day comes to the Sunny South East bred and we had consistently maintained a high level of records. The depth of breeding of cow families going back several generations sets IHFA breeders apart. This highlights the ability of these cow families to develop naturally into large numbers, owing to good fertility and strong longevity.”

Having adopted IHFA classification service over two years ago, the herd currently includes 63 VG/ EX cows in terms of conformation. “Cow type and quality to suit our farming system is one reason why we started using classification”

says Patrick. “As someone conscious of herd production standards and herd quality we want to be moving forward always. The classification inspection gives us powerful, independent information and feedback, which we then apply to our requirements to help achieve our desired outcomes.” Grenan Fact File •

A farming system in harmony with Biodiversity The farming system is finely balanced taking performance, nitrates and stocking rate into account. Patrick says that quality is more important than quantity, with the focus on increasing production from existing numbers rather than increasing cow numbers. The environment and possible E.U. policy constraints into the future are recognisable variables that may yet impact all dairy farmers. The farm includes 12 acres of bog. While in the past there had been notions to drain and reclaim this block to increase the grazing platform, a conscientious decision has been made to leave the bog as is to nature signifying a willingness to

67

Jo Quealy with Grenan Shamrock, 2nd place in Calf class at Iverk Show 2019 exist in harmony with the environment and be proactive towards biodiversity. Quality grass and grass silage is the main feed on the farm. Average meal feeding in 2019 at 850kgs/cow demonstrates the emphasis on grass utilisation. Patrick’s wife Sinead is at the dairy cutting edge in her own right through her company Virtual Vet. A previous winner of the National Dairy Show’s Innovation Award, Virtual Vet helps farmers with record keeping of animal remedies and treatments in providing assurances of traceability, to help garner value added from the market place. With all the Quealy family involved on the farm, the excitement is building, and a proud Déise welcome will greet everyone at the Pure Friesian Club Open Day on Thursday July 16th.

Hairs must be collected at time of flushing from donor dam by the ET technician/VET Samples must be sent to Weatherbys’ Laboratory immediately, (envelopes and DNA bags available from IHFA to record DNA type) Full parentage will be required for all female ET calves, as is the case with male calves. Certificates will ONLY be issued for embryo male and female calves that are fully parentage tested. The parentage test will be charged to the breeder. The cost of DNA type for the donor dam will be paid by IHFA (as is the situation at present)

•

When a HAIR sample is received for parentage verification and genomics, it is first sent to Weatherbys Laboratory where the DNA is extracted. This data is then sent to ICBF to verify the PARENTAGE & GENOMICS. If there is not sufficient readable DNA in the extraction process, official genomic proof and sire verification cannot be published. A REPEAT hair card is then sent to the breeder (CLASSED AS A RECALL). On receipt of the second sample the laboratory will repeat the process and send it to ICBF again for Genomic and parentage verification. If sufficient data is extracted the registration process can be completed.

It is imperative that a good hair sample with plenty roots is pulled from the swish of the tail (see photos on page 119) It is important that the hair is completely dry and as clean as possible. Use gloves to avoid contamination. Note: Hairs extracted from other parts of the coat will result in a FAILED DNA sample! It is VITAL that samples are stored in cool dry place out of direct sunlight.

Gold & Diamond

IHFA Gold & Diamond Awards recognise longevity and efficiency of production within the Registered Holstein Friesian cow population. The high market value of protein underlines the positive contribution of IHFA Gold or Diamond status cows on family farm income.

•

Gold status is awarded to cows achieving 3,000kgs of protein production and Diamond status is awarded where Excellent (EX) standard on conformation is achieved in addition.

•

The awards uniquely capture the inherent strengths of the breed, efficiency of milk solids production, longevity and functionality to suit Irish farming systems.

•

Within-herd variation is identified and the optimum genetics is brought to the fore since the cows who achieve this superior performance do so on a level basis with their herd-mates.

•

The environmental effect is fixed (not a variable) i.e. with herd management, system etc.

•

Excellent (EX) on conformation inherently captures longevity since cows must be at least 3rd parity before this can be attained.

•

Excellent (EX) status is a positive reflection of breeding policy capturing high linear scores for key functional traits so important of dairy cows (feet & legs, udders, rump structure).

Here we take a brief look at some of the cows who have achieved this landmark performance status 77
