Junior Awards
Presented to all youth under 21 showing their own animals in the Junior Classes by Sollio - Groupe Cooperatif
Overall Premier Exhibitor Banner
Presented by the Manitoba Holstein Branch to the exhibitor /owner (individual, partnership, or institution) having the highest number of points won in individual female classes by not more than 10 animals owned by the exhibitor. This does not limit the number of animals that may be shown. In the case of jointly-owned animals, joint ownership is considered as one exhibitor. No part of the points awarded counts towards teh individual score of any of the joint owners.
Overall Premier Breeder Banner
Presented by Blondin Sires to the breeding unit (individual, partnership, or institution) having the highest number of points won in individual female classes with a maximum of 10 animals considered for award calculation. Animals used for the award calculation do not necessarily have to be owned by the winner. Calculation of the premier Breeder award is strictly by the prefix of the animal, which can be identified on the Certificate of Registry.
Presented by Lactanet recoginzing one animal for the higest combined kilograms fat and protein in a completed 305-day record. Cows placing first and second in each of the milking classes are eligible. Proof of production must be provided to the Holstein Clerk of the show.
Overall Premier Sire / Meilieur Taureau
Presented by PrevTech Innovations
Premier Sires will be named for:
1) Junior animals and
2) all animals in the show
Longtime Production Class
Any animals who have exceeded 70,000 kg of milk must be shown in the Longtime Production Class. Production data (from Holstein Herdbook) is used to determine if an animal qualifies to show in the Longtime Production Class - 70,000 kg. However, if an exhibitor can prove to the show clerks, through a verified monthly Lactanet report, that any other cow has exceeded 70,000 kg of milk by show day, she is eligible to show in this class. No projections are accepted.
