Windhoek, Aug 05-Bank Windhoek and Feedmaster have teamed up to offer a nationwide Youth Cattle Judging Course and Competition. This is the first time the competition is being held on local soil and aims to equip school learners between grade 9 and 11, with the necessary knowledge and skills of assessment to judge cattle at farms and shows. The initiative focuses mainly on Simbrah and Simmentaller cattle breeds.
The programme is facilitated by Feedmaster, Namibia’s leading farm animal feed producer, and commenced in July. The third round took place on Saturday, 3 August 2019 while the fourth round will take place on Saturday, 7 September 2019 in Otjiwarongo. The judging course comprises, among other requirements, the cattle’s basic anatomy and composition, rules of show associations, the role of the show stewards, feed management of show animals and the preparation and taming of animals for show purposes.
“About 80 participants will take part in the judging programme. From this group, successful candidates from participating regions will advance to the national finals, which will take place at the Windhoek Agricultural and Industrial Show in Windhoek. We thank Bank Windhoek for making this possible for Namibia,” said Feedmaster’s Corporate Brand Specialist, Dawid Krause.
The selection process involves participating schools enrolling boys or girls who attend an introductory course in their respective regions. “To be successful, a trainee judge needs to know and understand the anatomy of each particular breed and be able to apply that knowledge in their assessment,” said Krause.
Nationwide, 16 schools will participate in the Bank Windhoek Youth Cattle Judging Course and Competition, they are: Elnatan, Gobabis Gymnasium; Windhoek High School; Windhoek Afrikaans Private School; Windhoek Gymnasium; M&K Gertze High School; Dr. Lemmer High School; Deutsche Höhere Private School; Agri College; Grootfontein High School; Tsumeb Gymnasium; Etosha Secondary School; Outjo Private School; Educate Otjiwarongo; Otjiwarongo High School and Deutsche Private School Otjiwarongo.
