The Hereford and Shorthorn breeds came out on top on November 5th at the 95th Royal Winter Agricultural Fair in the culminating event of the Masterfeeds Canadian Beef Show – the Masterfeeds Supreme Beef Champion.
In the female class, the winner was JDL Janice 11X 119C owned by Grosvenor Farm and JDL Cattle Company of Shelburne.
Supreme Bull was Hill Haven Fire Storm 28C owned by Dale Asser and Bob Meldrum of Hill Haven Shorthorns in Duntroon.
The Masterfeeds Supreme Beef Class had a new twist this year.
Supreme Champions from eight regional and county fairs were invited to send their champions to The Royal, including Teeswater and Erin.
No matter where they placed in The Royal's show, these regional Supremes were eligible to compete in the Masterfeeds Supreme Beef Class.
JDL Janice co-owner Shirley Lasby was nearly speechless after her entry was named Supreme Beef Champion Female.
JDL Janice was invited into the Supreme competition because she was Supreme Champion at the Erin Fall Fair.
