Chatsworth Farms Stockjudging
The YLBC are holding a National Stock Judging Competition at Chatsworth Farms on the 28th June 2007 by kind permission of the Duke & Duchess of Devonshire. The YLBC would like to invite all current members of the YLBC to participate in the event starting at 12.30pm. There will be Junior and Senior sections, with cash prizes for class winners. The competition will be run in the same way as the Royal Show, with there being four classes judged, and reasons are to be given on one of the three classes.

We are extremely grateful to Chatsworth Farms for allowing us to hold the competition there, as the Young Limousin Breeders Club are striving to push the club forward, and provide more events annually with the objective of being able to provide the opportunities to develop, encourage and motivate young Limousin livestock breeders.
