As usual judging day at the Queensland Dairy Showcase at Gatton, dawned with a fresh nip in the air but turned into quite a nice day. Judge, ICSA Federal President, Ian Mueller of Glenbrook Stud, Murray Bridge, considered 61 animals throughout the day, a smaller number than usual, no doubt due to the ongoing drought. Congratulations to all exhibitors on putting in the time and finance to attend.
