FROM THE JERSEY DESK As we head into the holiday season, it’s a great time to pause, reflect on the year that’s been, and begin setting our goals for the year ahead. The Association has achieved a great deal over the past 12 months. From finalising the introduction of the new class system and hosting in the World Conference, to the continued delivery of member services across the country, it has been a year of significant progress. The launch of the Australian Dairy Breeds Journal, along with our efforts to support and expand opportunities in both new and existing export markets, has further strengthened our position and engagement across the industry. None of these achievements would have been possible without the dedication and support of our members, staff, and industry partners. Your continued commitment and engagement remain the foundation of the Association’s success. As we look ahead to the coming year, our focus will be on building on this momentum - strengthening member services, increasing membership, deepening our industry partnerships, and driving further innovation and growth opportunities for Australian Jersey genetics both domestically and internationally. I would like to extend a warm welcome to the Australian Reds who have joined the Australian Dairy Breed Journal in this edition and we look forward to engaging with the Breed and your members across Australia and sharing your news and stories across the wider dairy community. On behalf of the Board and staff, I’d like to thank everyone for their contributions throughout the year. We wish you and your families a safe, happy, and restful holiday season, and look forward to an exciting and productive year ahead. Best Regards,
Glen Barrett Jersey Australia General Manager
GENETICS AUSTRALIA TAKES ON CHALLENGE SPONSORSHIP The new-look Great Australian Challenge has welcomed a new naming rights sponsor with Genetics Australia signing on for the next three years. The event will now be known at the Genetics Australia Great Australian Challenge with the new format being rolled out this year. The involvement of Genetics Australia marks the continuation of a strong connection that has developed over recent years. Genetics Australia CEO Anthony Shelly said the Challenge was a good match for the company. “Jersey breeders are an important part of our business, especially on the international stage, and this is an opportunity to contribute to an event that recognises some of the best Jersey cows in the Australian breeding program,” Mr Shelly said. While previously involved at club level, this is the first time Genetics Australia has sponsored the Great Australian challenge. Jersey Australia general manager Glen Barrett said the three-year commitment ensured the revamped event would remain the premier competition for Jersey breeders. “It’s exciting to continue and extend the great partnership we have with Genetics Australia,” Glen said. “The Genetics Australia Great Australian Challenge is one of the biggest events for engaging members across the country and will continue to be the best format for judging cows in their natural working environment,” he added. “We hope the change in format and removal of the Great Southern and Great Northern as intermediary stages will lead to a stronger focus on the Great Australian as the primary award.” The national winners will be announced at the Jersey Australia annual awards night at Noosa on May 28th, 2026.

FROM THE HOLSTEIN DESK
It’s been another busy spring around the country, with fodder harvest, shows and on-farm competitions to name a few, with the weather being a little more favourable for most than earlier in the year. Back in early October, we had our annual awards event held in Moama, NSW. On the Wednesday evening, NW Vic Sub-branch had another successful sale, with sale average of $5,010. Congratulations to all involved in the preparation and having the animals presented so well. It was well attended with 3 farm visits throughout the day and then around 120 guests for the dinner. Thank you to the North West Vic Sub-Branch for hosting and to all involved in making this a thoroughly enjoyable event. It was fantastic to be able to catch up with some HA members and congratulate them for all their hard efforts over the years, whether it be All Australian, Master Breeders, Distinguished Services Award or Cow of the Year. Spring time also sees many local and state shows in action. I would like to applaud all the hard work and commitment in the preparation of having these Holsteins looking world class. We have also seen on farm competitions run and won over then past few months. Congratulations to all involved in making these competitions running year on year. The past couple of months has also seen long time HA employee David Jupp retire from his company secretary role and Adam Sawell finishing up after 8 years commitment in the marketing and communications space. I would like to sincerely thank both David and Adam for all their years of dedication, commitment and professionalism they have contributed to Holstein Australia and its members. In November, Holstein Australia had its 38th AGM at AgriBio in Bundoora. I would like to welcome newly elected board members Bill Morgan, Craig Cochrane & Toria Patten. Joining Gino Pacitti (President), Bryan Dickson and re-elected Garry Carpenter. Also extending thanks to Phil Hall for his time and dedication to the board over the past 6 years. I would like to wish all members out there a safe and happy Christmas and look forward to catching up with you at IDW or an event throughout the year.

John Crowther Holstein Australia Interim CEO

BUILDING STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS Jersey Australia is excited about the growing opportunities emerging in Indonesia and is working to strengthen long-term relationships through the supply of quality dairy heifers and support for the establishment of an Indonesian National Jersey Association. The creation of an Indonesian Jersey Association would mark the first dairy breed association in the country, providing Indonesia with the opportunity to lay strong foundations for the future direction and development of the Jersey breed. The first shipment of heifers is scheduled to depart in January 2026 and will include a small consignment to begin the program. A larger shipment of registered, genomic-tested heifers is planned for September 2026, with annual shipments proposed through to 2029.

PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Gino Pacitti - President, Holstein Australia The 2024 / 2025 financial year has been one of reflection, renewal and resolve for Holstein Australia. Our industry continues to navigate significant challenges, from the sustained downturn in live export to fluctuating milk prices and evolving market conditions. Despite these pressures, our members, staff and volunteers have continued to demonstrate the resilience and community spirit that define this Association. Through a period of transition, the Board’s focus has remained clear - to ensure the sustainability of Holstein Australia while maintaining the services, standards and values that members expect. The work undertaken over the past year, which is ongoing, has been about positioning the Association for a strong and stable future, one that reflects both our proud heritage and our readiness to adapt to a changing environment. Governance and Leadership During the year, the Board and management team have worked closely to strengthen governance and align operations with financial realities. The Association has experienced a period of adjustment, with changes in leadership and staffing bringing both challenge and opportunity. I would like to acknowledge the dedication of management and the professionalism of our staff, who have maintained service delivery to members through these challenging times. We also recognise and thank those directors, committee members and employees who concluded their service during the year. Their contribution to Holstein Australia, and to the advancement of the Holstein breed nationally, is greatly appreciated. Financial and Organisational Performance The ongoing impact of the live export downturn has placed considerable pressure on income, requiring the Association to review its cost structure and staffing levels carefully. These measures have not been easy, but they have been necessary to ensure long-term sustainability. The Board remains committed to responsible financial management and to ensuring that every decision is made with the best interests of members and the breed in mind. Despite these pressures, core member services - registrations, classifications and herd recording support - have remained strong, with classification activity increasing significantly during the year. Initiatives such as EasyReg and the ILRonline upgrade have continued to improve efficiency and member convenience, reflecting the Association’s focus on continual improvement even in challenging conditions. Strategic Direction The Board of Holstein Australia has undertaken a review of the Association’s services in response to a significant financial loss in the 2024–25 year.
PAGE 12 << ADBJ
The review purpose is to ensure the long-term sustainability of the organisation. Key focus areas include: • Prioritising core activities of membership, registrations, and classification, while continuing to support the social connections that are central to Holstein Australia. • Assessing all services to determine their ongoing value and role in the future. • Implementing necessary operational changes, which may include restructuring staff roles. • Reviewing product and service pricing to ensure the Association operates on at least a break-even basis. The work undertaken by the Board, and Management, has commenced the implementation of the strategic plan. Over the ensuing year, and beyond, the Board will continue to monitor performance of the Association, the underlying market for our products and services, and adjust our operations accordingly. It is critically important, for the long-term sustainability of Holstein Australia, that our members, committees, sub branches and industry partners work together to achieve our ambitions of ensuring that our Association remains relevant, resilient and respected within the dairy industry. Member and Industry Engagement The strength of Holstein Australia lies in its people. Across the country, members, classifiers, sub branch volunteers and youth participants continue to contribute to a vibrant and supportive community. Events such as Holstein Highlights and youth development programs demonstrate the passion and pride that exist within our breed. I also acknowledge the valuable collaboration between Holstein Australia and our industry partners, including the National Herd Improvement Association of Australia, Jersey Australia, and the Australian Dairy Youth Association. These partnerships play a vital role in advancing shared objectives. Looking Ahead The coming year will see continued focus on embedding operational efficiencies and strengthening member engagement. While challenges remain, I am confident that Holstein Australia is now better positioned to meet them. On behalf of the Board, I extend sincere thanks to our members for their loyalty and support; to our committees and volunteers for their time and expertise; and to our staff, whose commitment ensures the continued delivery of quality services. Together, we are building a stronger, more sustainable future for Holstein Australia and for the next generation of dairy farmers.
BREED DEVELOPMENT & CONFORMATION COMMITTEE REPORT
Garry Carpenter, Chair The 2024–25 year has been one of consolidation and progress for the Breed Development & Conformation Committee (BDCC), with the Committee maintaining a strong focus on classification consistency, data integrity and the continued development of Holstein Australia’s breed programs. Despite broader challenges across the dairy and genetics sectors, the BDCC has continued to guide the classification program, review competition frameworks and contribute to industry initiatives aimed at strengthening the breed’s genetic and functional attributes. Classification The classification program remains central to the Association’s breed development activities. Over the past year, classification numbers increased by around 30 per cent year-on-year, reflecting strong engagement across most regions. Following the internal review, a formalised process for classifier score disputes has been developed for inclusion in the Classification Handbook.
Breed Development The All-Australian Photographic Competition continues to highlight excellence in Holstein breeding and presentation, attracting approximately 190 entries this year. The increasing use of digital enhancement and editing tools has added complexity, reinforcing the importance of clear rules, transparency and consistency in judging. Holstein Australia is working to ensure the integrity and credibility of this longstanding and valued member competition. Ricky Nelson joined the judging panel this year alongside Daniel Holmes and Andrew Koch. The Committee also progressed updates to the National Judges Panel and supported planning for the next national judging school. Acknowledgements I would like to thank my fellow Committee members for 2024 / 2025 - Bill Morgan, Scott Somerville, Brett Cirillo and Wes Brown - along with management and the classification team for their commitment and professionalism throughout the year.
INTERIM CEO REPORT The 2024–2025 financial year has been one of transition and recalibration for Holstein Australia. Against a backdrop of continued market volatility—particularly the downturn in live export—the Association has remained focused on maintaining high-quality services for members, managing resources responsibly, and ensuring the long-term sustainability of operations.
Member Services
John Crowther
Staff Operations Our staff continue to play a vital role in driving service delivery and shaping the overall member experience. The ongoing impact of the live export downturn has continued to place pressure on Association income, leading to further reductions in staffing levels during the financial year. July 2024, Holstein Australia employed 12.5 full-time equivalents, as of end October 2025, now sit at 8.5 full time staff. This followed the departures of Rohan Butler (CEO), Leanne Summerville (Classifier Coordinator), Miranda Clark (Genetic Services Officer), Shane Patten (Classifier) David Jupp (Company Secretary) & Adam Sawell (Maketing and Comms). I would like to sincerely thank Rohan, Leanne, Miranda, Shane, David and Adam for their years of dedicated service and their significant contributions to the Association. Registrations Animal registrations were down approximately 4% for the financial year, performing relatively well given the lower milk prices experienced throughout the year. Key developments included: • Introduction of a new ILRonline update, allowing members easier access to herd and membership details, and enabling more frequent inventory updates. • Requirement for registered Holsteins, shipped to several international destinations. • Growing adoption of EasyReg, particularly valued during peak on-farm periods for its convenience and efficiency.
Classification Classification numbers increased by approximately 30% compared to the previous year, reflecting strong spring demand and renewed engagement from members. Genomics Genomics have further reduced throughout the financial year, consistent with market trends throughout the industry. Summary The 2024–2025 year has brought significant operational and structural change for Holstein Australia. As we enter the year ahead, the focus remains on stability, sustainability, and the continued delivery of high-quality member services. Positive service activity over the first four months of the 2025/26 financial year reflects some of the operational changes made throughout the 2024/25 year and indicates some key focus points outlined from the Strategic Review. Thank You.

The 2025 Australian Holstein Cow of the Year is: Murribrook Goldwyn Verbena ET
Duncan and Helen Smith have always dreamt of making their mark on the big stage. Their Hightop Holsteins has won a few local awards over the years, but until now the big titles have eluded them. With MURRIBROOK GOLDWYN VERBENA-ET being named Holstein Australia’s Cow of the Year, their dream has come true. “It’s the first time we’ve had anything like this happen so it’s great,” Duncan said. “I was over the moon, couldn’t be any happier. We do all right in the little shows but it’s the big events where we want to be recognised. To win something like that, was a real career goal. “That’s one off the bucket list… now hopefully we can get a championship win at Dairy Week one year.” Based at Zeerust, near Shepparton in Northern Victoria, the Smith family milks 250 cows, with son Nathan now part of the business. The herd is 80 per cent registered Holsteins and the remainder mixed commercial cows.
Duncan and Helen breed for milk production and type and say that to be a good breeder, you need to have a great understanding of cows. You have to be able to look at a cow and see its good points and its bad points and then get a bull that will fix the flaws the best you can.
MURRIBROOK GOLDWYN VERBENA-ET came into the herd in 2020. Bred by Master Breeder, Murray Sowter of Moss Vale NSW, Verbena was purchased by the Smiths for a sale topping $23,000.
Now 15, Verbena recently retired from milking but is being successfully flushed. “We’re trying to get as many eggs now to continue her success,” Duncan says.
“We saw at the Winter Fair one year and I thought 'wow… what a cow’ and when she came up for sale, I said we’re going to buy her no matter what.
Verbana’s record stands supreme. She surpassed 112,000 litres with a lifetime average PI of 115 and as a 17 Star Brood Cow, she is among the highest living Star Brood Cows in Australia.
“She’s paid for herself 20 times over and has been a great asset to our family. Everyone has their special cow. We’ve bred some cows that have done very well but you have to top them up with something that is outstanding, and Verbena was one of those outstanding cows that we wanted to add to our collection.”
As a brood cow, her direct daughters include 4 Excellent and 17 VG daughters, with 14 of them boasting an ABV greater than +200 BPI.
A daughter of two-time Sydney Royal Champion, Strongbark Linjet Victory, Verbena’s pedigree is steeped in rich Holstein history, back to the incomparable matriarch, Carmar Linmack Dixie. The Smiths had entered Verbena in the Cow of the Year award on three previous occasions, but this year they had a special supporter. “Jon Holland helped us by filling out the nomination forms properly, which was greatly appreciated,” Duncan said. “We were up against some tremendous cows but Jon’s help helped to get her over the line.”
Sales of her progeny have grossed more than $180,000, with daughters and granddaughters in constant demands from other breeders. Many have topped local On Farm Challenges and high profile shows – including her granddaughter, Gorbro Lambda Violet, named Supreme All Breeds Junior Champion at IDW 2025. On the ABV charts, Verbena remains one of the leading ABV cows of her generation, with a BPI 290, including 108 Overall Type and 104 Mammary.
The Smiths have had first place getters and honourable mentions at IDW but will continue to strive for a champion title… and they also have ambitions for a Hightop-bred cow to win the Cow of the Year title.
While this is her first national title, her prolific show career spans more than a decade including Intermediate Champion at Sydney Royal in 2013 - to claiming the Champion’s title in 2024 as a 14-year-old at the Shepparton National Show. In between there was a swag of On Farm Challenge titles, two more Champion titles at the NSW State Show and Reserve Champion at the Victorian Winter Fair.
“Verbena has a great pedigree behind her and she’s leaving us great daughters along with great daughters throughout the industry,” Duncan says. “Hopefully we can get it again!”
Apart from all her show and production achievements, Verbena is noted as a kind and easy-to-mil cow, and her daughters and grand-daughters have inherited the same great nature. DEC 2025 >> PAGE 15

// MASTER BREEDER Article; Rick Bayne
3 times a Master As Australia’s first three-time Holstein Master Breeder, John Gardiner has made a career out of breeding functional “everyday” cows. Holstein Australia recently awarded John’s Avonlea Holstein Stud Master Breeder status for the third time, a new industry landmark for the breed. He doesn’t have a magical formula for success but says it’s about passion, strong family history and support, embracing technology and not letting the “one-percenters” slip by. “A good breeder needs to have a passion for it and realise it’s an ever-evolving industry and you never stop learning,” he says. “You need to keep up with modern technology and all the information that is available today. You need perseverance and have very clear set goals in your mind about what sort of cow you’re trying to breed.”
While Avonlea has won national and international recognition, John says his breeding goals are fairly basic. “We breed for functional cows, what I would call everyday cows that the commercial farmer should relate to as well.
Avonlea Holsteins, started by John’s father Harley in 1948, first achieved Master Breeder status in 1992 and was again rewarded in 2004.
“I like cows structured to produce on a daily basis – wedgeshaped dairy cows with very good udders, great texture through their body and mammary system and then good legs and feet.”
At 67, John and his wife Cherie are no longer milking but they maintain the Avonlea prefix and hope to see its influence continue for many years to come.
Their success at multiple shows brought lots of joy over the years.
Harley was based near Colac in south-west Victoria when he started registering the herd. “Holsteins, or Friesians as they weren’t known then, weren’t prolific like they are today but Dad got interested in them through the Lakeside herd which was next door to him,” John said. “Before that he had anything that looked like they might give some milk.” The family later moved to Carrum Downs and invested in two dairies before moving to Cardinia in 2011. John’s life-long interest in breeding led him to leave school at 16 for a farm apprenticeship and he’s never left the industry. However, John and Cherie sold their milking herd in 2021 in a record-breaking sale. At that stage, their son Luke wasn’t interested in farming but he has since started studying agriculture and now has the passion and motivation to keep the Avonlea herd thriving. Avonlea is now based on 128 hectares at Nar Nar Goon in Gippsland with John using IVF on some older cows that weren’t sold for various reasons and bringing in embryos from North America and implanting them in commercial heifers. “Some we will sell off and some we will keep in partnership with friends; that way we’re still involved in the industry,” he said.
Avonlea Jet Essie was three times All Australian cow - as a four-year-old and then twice as a mature cow - but even bigger honours came in 1994 she was named All World Cow in the Typex competition. “It was amazing,” John said. “If she was alive today, she would still compete well at the very best shows. She was in many ways, ahead of her time.” Avonlea’s Essie and Connie families have been standouts over the decades. In the early 1970s, Avonlea won awards as the top production herd in Victoria. However, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing, with droughts, price crashes and diseases impacting the business. “We got Johne's disease in 1999 and that really challenged us financially,” John said. “We sold 40 cows to a breeder in Finley and one came up with a positive reading. We had to test everything and got a reaction in a commercial cow that we’d brought in to carry embryos. That triggered a whole process of us being virtually in quarantine and then testing every 12 months until we worked our way out of it. The first couple of years we ran at a loss on the farm. A significant part of our business was selling cattle but we couldn’t sell any of them.” DEC 2025 >> PAGE 17
They recovered but when the milk price crashed in 2009, they sold the bulk of the herd, leaving only about 40 hard-to-sell cows. “That makes it even more special to get a Master Breeder award in this last period because we basically started all over again,” John said. Over the period leading up to the latest honour, Avonlea bred 667 females with 48 classified as Excellent and 176 as Very Good. John ranks this latest honour alongside the family’s first title. “They’re all special but the first one meant a lot because dad was involved. Without the foundations that he set, it would never have happened.” Harley was the second farmer behind Vern Kerber to receive a Holstein Australia Master Breeder Award. “This award is up there with the first one because it represents 60 years and also with all the changes that have happened in that time, with virtually all the herd sold in 2009. To start over again and get another Master Breeder is pretty special.” Family continues to play a significant role in the stud’s success. “Mum wasn’t into the cow side of it but she supported dad 100 per cent and it’s the same with Cherie. Without the support of those around you, you can’t do the things you are passionate about.
“We’re fifth generation dairy farmers and the passion for breeding has passed from generation to generation.” That passion can also create challenges. “When you’re a breeder and farmer and you’re passionate about it, it’s not just a job, at times it can become all-consuming,” John said. “Sometimes you’ve got to take stock and we made the decision in 2021 that it was the right time to sell and looking back I believe it was right. We were trying to operate at the top end of the scale so you don’t let little things slip by. All those one percenters are pretty important. In many respects, I needed a break from it. Having got out of the milking side, in a sense I still miss it but from a family and health point of view it was the right call.” However, he does encourage others to follow their passion for good breeding. “I think you need to watch closely the ones that are doing well, go for herd visits and listen to what people are saying. Go to shows, go to sales, keep up-to-date on what’s happening on the internet, follow bull proofs and genomic proofs and use all those as tools to improve your breeding program.
“They’re all tools to make you a better breeder “

Triple Treat… PLUS A BONUS! Article; Rick Bayne
Andrew and Angela Koch’s Ashtaney Jersey stud is no stranger to success but this year’s results at the Royal Adelaide Show were one out of the box. The stud took out the trifecta - winning the Junior, Intermediate and Senior champion titles in the feature Jersey show. And as if that hat-trick wasn’t enough, Ashtaney Jerseys also won champion heifer at the youth show earlier in the week. While they have won two of the big three titles at previous shows, this was their first across-the-board win and possibly the first in the history of the event. “We have won two of the three in the past but never all three and not in feature breed year. It hasn’t been done before that I’m aware of,” Andrew said. Most surprising was the first win of the day in the junior category, in which they also achieved second placing. “We thought our junior team was okay but not stand-outs,” Andrew said. “As a family we preferred the second-place getter but the judge, Russell Gammon, seemed to really love the winner.” The winner, Ashtaney Casino Stylish, was fitted out by Ryan Barker. The intermediate winner, Ashtaney Viral Sadie, was being shown for the first time. “She’s an exciting young cow,” Andrew said. “She has been a standout all the way through from a calf but we’ve never been able to get her to a show.” Ashtaney Viral Sadie was due to compete at the Mt Pleasant Show earlier this year but the show was cancelled due to the heat policy. However, she did win Champion heifer at the Mount Compass Jersey Club heifer competition. She continues the success of well-established sire Viral. “Viral is a bull that has really found his place here,” Andrew said. “He has been around for a while but we’re still using him because we’ve had really good success with him. The mature cows by him are really productive and great members in the herd and we’re still having nice calves born.” Ashtaney Viral Sadie also runs back to the famous Fleurieu Selly family. Sadie was named Supreme Jersey Exhibit and All Breed Intermediate Champion. “She has a tremendous udder, tremendous rump structure and attachments, and nice dairy strength,” Andrew said.

Senior champion was Ashtaney Topsy Misty Mia (the last part of the name reflects ABBA the musical, as she was born around the time the family watched it). She is no stranger to the show ring and has been reserve champion in Adelaide to a herd mate and second in her class at International Dairy Week to the champion cow. Andrew says she has a powerful open frame and exemplifies the term `dairy strength’ with a good udder to go with it. She’s a broken-coloured cow and quite eye-catching in the ring. Andrew admits they were “ blown away ” by the triple success. “Having Russell Gammon judge was a real honour. He made the judging interesting for people watching,” he said. “We really weren’t expecting the junior championship but had our eyes set on the other titles. To pick up the junior early in the day with the best yet to come was pretty exciting.” The success came amid strong competition, including some entries from Victoria. Ashtaney was already on the road to success earlier in the week with judging the all-breeds youth show, winning champion heifer with Ashtaney Chocolatier Angel, under judge Mitchell Flemming. (pictured above) That success was even more poignant with 11-year-old Lachie Fiebiger leading her in his first leading experience. Lachie also went on to win champion leader of his age group. Andrew and Angela milk about 100 Jerseys and 200 Holsteins at their farm in South Australia’s Barossa Valley, with year-round calving to fit their Woolworths Farmer’s Own brand flat supply contract.

// MASTER BREEDER Article; Sophie Baldwin
The Journey of Gunwilla Park Holsteins A trip to a local dispersal sale was a pivotal moment for Rob Gundry from Gunwilla Park Holsteins, Gunbower. The sale was back in the early 1980s and Rob had scraped together $1,500 to buy a couple of young cows from Ron Crossman. “I paid $750 for each of them and it was a lot of money back then, but they were good cows and I couldn’t believe how tall and dairy they were,” Rob said. At the time Rob was milking with his dad Winston and the herd was a mixed bag of cross breeds with Guernsey herd bulls bought from a local farmer. “When I think back now, Ron and his cows were ahead of their time. “Ron was using a lot of American and Canadian genetics and I just thought to myself I want more cows like that and really, I was hooked from that moment on.” Rob soon put a call into Holstein Australia and began the journey of registering his own herd via the appendix system. He also became involved with the North West Sub Branch at the same time. Whenever he had any spare money (or even if he didn’t), Rob would purchase cows from local sub branch sales, International Dairy Week and then later on, on farm sales at Clydevale, Gorbro and Elmar. Rob loves a good type cow and has targeted a few cow families over the years that have performed well for him in his own herd, including the Barbie’s, Randells and Lilly’s. He purchased Woodlawn Fever Randell from Flannigans in Finley around ten years ago. “She has been a great family for us- not a big cow but full of dairy strength which is what we are targeting.” Another great purchase has been Atwood Lilly Pilly, her Jagger daughter is currently featured in the National Herd sire catalogue.
PAGE 22 << ADBJ
The famous Barbie family have also delivered for Rob and he now has quite a few lines developed within his own herd. While Rob has bought in cow families, his own Gunwilla cows have also had some success. Gunwilla Fredia Medallion who came through the appendix system, with Jersey in her linage way back, was Rob’s first cow to classify excellent. She also came first in the four-year-old sub branch on farm challenge around 2015 and went on to come second in Victoria that same year. Rob has a granddaughter coming though now who is looking pretty good, she featured in this years on farm challenge team. Rob said he has learnt a lot over the years about confirmation and classification and has been surprised by the quality of his own genetics. “I come from a commercial background and like most people, we just used to put the cups on and milk the cows. It wasn’t until I started to get my own cows classified and classifiers were pointing out things I couldn’t see, that I really started to learn.
“I am hoping it will help when it comes time to sell our young stock because we always have too many of them running around.” Rob has been selling 50 or so in calf heifers to local farmers over the last 12 months. Rob along with his wife Suz, are currently milking 530 cows across 2000 acres of owned and leased land. He has no intention of increasing numbers any further and is happy with where herd numbers are currently sitting. He said he has been lucky over the years to have purchased additional land, with high security water shares, which has enabled him to expand his dairy business to where it sits today. “Building the rotary was a big game changer for us and enabled us to manage our workload without hours spent in the shed although I would much rather spend time working with cows than be sitting on a tractor.” Rob is unsure where his love of cows comes from, but it is something that has remained with him from the very start.
“Adam Dee was a great help to me in those early years, along with people like Jeff Harrower and Richard Anderson who were always willing to share their knowledge.
“I was 17 when I first got my AI ticket and I have been interested in breeding ever since.
Rob said receiving Master Breeder this years was a bit of a shock and a lovely surprise.
have bred and looked after, find their way into the herd.”
There is nothing more rewarding than watching cows you
“Everyone knew about it except for me but it is a great recognition for a lifetime of dedication to breeding.” While he was a bit sceptical at the start, Rob is now tipping his toe into genomics. He is about to start genomic testing his calves and embark on a genomic mating program with Jo Holloway from Semex.

“Upon my arrival at the farm, I was instantly greeted by Oakfield Solomon Footloose EX97 – it was like meeting a celebrity, except way better! The excitement didn’t stop there – I also got to see and work with the likes of MS Beautys Black Velvet EX96, Peace & Plenty Doc Jubie 16 EX96 and Jacobs Lambda Baz EX92.” Her trip extended to West Canada – touring the Rocky Mountains before farm visits to Hammingview Farms, Benco Holsteins, Elmbridge Farms, Martiann Holsteins, Westcoast Holsteins and the WestGen ARC IVF Barn.
My internship at Budjon was a life-changing experience and I will be forever grateful for the opportunity! I think for me, the most valuable part was being able to learn the behind the scenes of showing. Working alongside Tom and Kelli at the farm, helping develop the cows and heifers for World Dairy Expo and watch those animals become class winners and champions, was such a rewarding experience and I’m so excited to implement those skills at home as I prepare my own team for International Dairy Week. A key take away for me is to never be afraid to have a go and ask lots of questions, you can always utilise what other people have to offer in your own programs or farming operations. Spending time and learning from real leaders in the US dairy show space has deeply shaped my outlook on the type of cow I want to breed in the future. Their ability to breed a WDE champion cow who is also well functioning herd cow that ticks all the boxes at home, I think emphasis the opportunities available when you work with long standing, proven cow families in your breeding programs.
If anyone is ever given the opportunity I had, I would encourage them to grasp it with both hands. Lauren McIlveen Strathmerton, VIC PAGE 29 << ADBJ

A Third Supreme in a
decade for the Dings at Royal Adelaide Article; Jon Holland
The Dings have done it again with the illustrious cow family claiming its third Supreme Champion title in ten years at the Royal Adelaide Show in September. Benlargo Mafia Ding EX-90-2E 1xM 2xP withstood a star-studded line-up of senior Holsteins before wowing the allbreeds judging panel to claim the ultimate prize. Holstein Show judge Mr. Daniel Bacon of Brookbora Jerseys praised his champion for her sharp and angular bone quality, her exceptional udder attachments and overall bloom and texture. The 7-year-old is a daughter of Benlargo Bolton Ding 2-ET VG86 1xM 1xP, bred by Angela and Ben Tweddle of Benlargo Holsteins.
“Her udder looks even better when she’s full. It doesn’t matter how much milk you put on her – she just carries it.”
This year was Mafia Ding’s second appearance at Adelaide after winning her class and receiving an Honourable Mention in the Senior Holstein line-up in 2024.
The couple milk 320 registered Holsteins at Glencoe, 20kms north west of Mt Gambier along the south eastern border of South Australia.
Angela said Mafia Ding never drew attention to herself, having previously spent most of her life in the shadow of her older sister, the three-times Reserve All Australian and 2023 Adelaide Supreme Champion, Benlargo Elijah Ding EX-92-2E 2*.
Showing their Holstein cows has been a long-time passion for the Tweddles, and is an interest they now share as a family. Their daughter Shae and son Connor are both keenly involved, and have already accumulated an impressive array of show championships, handler titles and youth awards.
She said breaking in Mafia Ding as a mature aged cow for the first time was not an easy task – especially when she already had a reputation for an aggressive nature.
Angela often refers to the shows as their ‘family holiday’. Twice a year they make the long journey to northern Victoria with their cows to compete at International Dairy Week in January and the NHD Victorian Winter Fair in July. Even Adelaide Royal – considered their local show – is a five-hour journey by truck. “We love going to the shows. It’s a great chance each year to catch up with friends,” Angela said. “It’s something we can all enjoy and something we can do where we’re all working together – and the competition is good fun too.” For the past 20 years, the Dings have been among the premier cow families at Benlargo Holsteins. Their journey began when the Tweddles joined the Esgee syndicate, buying a share in the esteemed All Australian and two-time IDW Intermediate Champion, Tiger Farms SG Ding-ET EX-93-3E 2* 1xF. Angela says her Dings are recognisable for their aggressive appetite, reliable conformation and elite production potential. “It doesn’t matter what bull you use over them – the Ding’s always milk,” she said. On her fourth lactation, Mafia Ding has peaked at 52litres per day, and has already surpassed 600kg milk solids in under 200 days on a pasture based diet. “She’s not a big cow – but she’s balanced and has a great udder and gives a heap of milk,” Angela said. BENLARGO MAFIA DING (TOP) BENLARGO ELIJAH DING (BOTTOM) PAGE 34 << ADBJ
Mafia Ding received only minimal preparation leading up to the show with Angela admitting she initially wasn’t going to take her this year. “She’s a great herd cow and is always the first cow on the second line into the dairy,” Angela said. “She prefers to do her own thing and she’s not a cow that likes being separated.” “She really hates it and I couldn’t be bothered dealing with her,” Angela said, “but I’m glad I did because I think it was the best she has ever looked.” The Tweddles won their first Supreme title at Adelaide Royal in 2015 with Benlargo Lauthority Ding-ET VG85 1xM 1xP – a direct daughter of the acclaimed SG Ding. In 2019, another descendant of SG Ding finished on top when Elijah Ding claimed the Supreme Intermediate crown. Then in 2023, their Benlargo Holsteins put on a dominant display with their Elijah Ding taking the Supreme Dairy Cow title, alongside her milking 2-year-old daughter, Benlargo Alligator Ding VG88 following her mother’s footsteps as the Supreme Intermediate. Alligator Ding then returned to the spotlight a few months later, named Junior Champion at the IDW Youth Show with Shae on the halter. This sudden rise to fame did not go unnoticed, with the dam and daughter pair catching the eye of renowned Master Breeder Jim Strong of Strongbark Holsteins. Jim said he first saw Elijah Ding the wash bay at the NHD Victorian Winter Fair in 2023.
“I had seen Angela working with her in the days leading up to the show, and thought she was among the best cows there,” he said of the Elijah Ding.
“The Ding’s have been great cows for a long time.
I think they’re probably up there with the top half a dozen cow families we’ve ever had in Australia.” “It’s amazing how many good cows you see today trace back to the Ding family,” he said. “Everywhere you go it seems someone has another good one – so I thought it was time I needed to get one myself.” A visit to South Australia soon followed, and an opportunity to buy into the bloodline came in the yearling daughter of Mafia Ding, Benlargo Actionman Mafding. Fresh on her first lactation, Actionman Mafding placed second in her class and named Reserve Intermediate of the Holstein Show at Adelaide. “I was lucky enough that Angela said I could buy her and I couldn’t have been happier with how she looked at the show,” Jim said. “Hopefully she’s back in calf now to have another crack next year.” Despite having retired from dairying, Jim maintains involvement in a select group of cows that are managed by his close friends, Willy and Lisa McKay of Linsand Holsteins. “You just don’t stop your interest in cows just because you’re not milking them. I could never cut myself off completely, so I’m very lucky to have people like Willy and Lisa, and now Angela, that allow me to still be a part of it.”

GLOBAL GENETICS POWERHOUSE GENEX STAKES A BIGGER CLAIM IN AUSTRALIA
GENEX Dairy is stepping up its presence in Australia, bringing the full strength of its global genetics program and data-driven breeding philosophy to local herds. The GENEX brand was officially launched in Australia on Monday November 24th as part of Genetics Australia’s joint venture with URUS. The December proof release will mark the next phase of GENEX’s Australian growth, with a clear focus on genetics and technology designed for commercial herds. Newly appointed GENEX Dairy Program lead, Mat Dennis, said it was the first time GENEX products would be distributed in Australia under their own name. GENEX is a cooperative owned by dairy and beef producers across the USA. Backed by the URUS Peak Program, GENEX combines global innovation with Australian experience to deliver cows that are efficient, fertile and built to last. “This isn’t a new arrival but it’s a global powerhouse taking a bigger role in Australia,” Mr Dennis said. “Farmers here want cows that thrive in all dairy systems, get back in calf easily and perform year after year. Bulls like EXCITEMENT, VALENTINE and DOUBS deliver exactly that.” EXCITEMENT is described as having moderate stature, positive chest width, moderate milk and strong components; an efficient, right-sized Holstein for balanced production, while VALENTINE is a standout for production, fertility and survival. DOUBS is a polled Jersey outcross adding teat length and fertility for functionality in Australian dairies. Mr Dennis said GENEX was recognised as a world leader in dairy innovation. It has been the driving force behind the ICC index for Holstein and Jersey breeds, the modern udder index, and the introduction of calving ease into the proofs. Alongside genetics, GENEX Herd Monitor continues to expand its footprint, offering real-time heat detection, rumination tracking and health alerts to support better on-farm decision-making. “Our strength is how genetics and technology work together,” GENEX Herd Monitor Lead Jon Down said. “Herd Monitor gives farmers the visibility to make better breeding and health decisions every day — improving heat detection, conception and overall performance.” “GENEX’s growth represents a commitment to delivering global genetics leadership locally — combining science, data and service to build herds ready for the future,” Mr Dennis added.

Vale TRISH MCCRAW It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Trish McCraw, a passionate advocate for dairy youth and the Ayrshire breed. Trish devoted much of her life to supporting young people in agriculture, particularly through her long involvement with the VASA dairy cattle parading and judging competitions. Her mentorship, encouragement and genuine care for the next generation left a lasting impression on many who were fortunate to learn under her guidance. In 2020 Trish’s dedication was recognised with the Bette Hall Award, honouring her tireless contribution to the dairy industry and her unwavering commitment to helping others succeed. Her knowledge, generosity and kind spirit inspired all who had the pleasure of working alongside her. Trish’s passion for good cattle and her belief in the value of youth development will be fondly remembered by those across the Ayrshire and wider dairy communities. Our heartfelt condolences are extended to her family, friends and everyone whose lives she touched. Rest peacefully, Trish; your legacy will continue through the people and cattle you helped shape.

The Worst of Years The Daryl Bryce lived through what should have been the worst time in his farming career – the Ash Wednesday bushfires. Daryl and his wife Sue lost half their house at Naringal, part of the dairy, most of the farm infrastructure and more than 100 cows in the 1983 disaster. But, in many ways, this year’s drought has been worse. Now farming at Cudgee where their son Tim runs the business, the Bryce family, like most in south-west Victoria, have endured the worst drought in memory. Their Mt Pleasant Jerseys farm - named after a local mountain which is more like a hill – has been anything but pleasant over the past year. “It has been the worst year since I left school in 1966,” Daryl says. Tim and Daryl have been told it will take more than three years to recover from the financial hardship caused by the drought, but there are blooms of hope. Their Jersey herd has recovered well; there has been good spring growth and milk prices are up, but the scars left by the disaster will take a long time to heal, both personally and financially. “The hardship is on a par and financially we’re worse off with this than after the fires,” Daryl says. “You could build half a house with the cost of the feed.” They had to buy 650 tonnes of feed and each load kept getting dearer. For eight of the past 12 months, the farm’s feed bill was more than the milk cheque. They farm on 147 hectares north and south of the Princes Highway at Cudgee, near Warrnambool, with an underpass connecting the two properties. They usually milk about 215 but the milking herd currently stands at 194, a reflection of the tough season. Tim now runs the farm with Daryl, 75, in the 'Dad can you do this?’ phase of his career. Daryl and Sue had retired from farming for 12 years but the bug never left and they purchased their small Cudgee farm about 10 years ago, later expanding across the highway and rebuilding their Jersey stud.
“We bought 80 high BPI cows from Byron Smethurst and they have been breeding really well,” Daryl says. “They were the only Jersey herd in Australia to average 8000 litres of milk. They went through the drought this year and all-of-a-sudden when we got grass, they lifted straight away and got back up to 24 litres. They’ve got the ability to produce a lot.” The stud’s premier families include Ezme, Ivy, Amy, Emma and Vera. Since returning to farming, they’ve shown once at International Dairy Week, finishing 8th out of 18, and continue to compete in the Jersey Australia on-farm challenges, winning classes multiple titles and achieving Reserve Champion Cow for the past two years with Tequilla Lollypop and Brookbora Amy. Mt Pleasant Jerseys also took home the prestigious Group of Five award for the past two years along with platinum production awards. “We probably won’t get it this year because of the drought, but we won’t be that far off,” Daryl adds. They mainly breed for production. “They’ve got to produce and they’ve got to look good,” Daryl says. “You’ve got to like looking at what you’re milking every day.” The herd is high in fat and protein content, rarely dropping below 5 for fat and around 4.2 for protein. They usually feed 6kg grain in the bale. “Last year, we were feeding three bales of lucerne purchased from NSW and two bales of oaten hay each day, but we had to cut back a bit,” Tim says. This spring they’ve done 918 rolls of silage, 140 up on last year and above the long-term average of about 800. “I’ve never seen the grass so slow coming through and then for three weeks or a month I’ve never seen it grow so fast,” Tim says. “At the moment, there’s grass everywhere. The cows usually drop at the end of October but so far, they holding up reasonably well and the grass is still growing. “We sowed the first week of April and didn’t get any growth for 10 weeks. I said to Dad we’re going to have to re-sow but then we got the first lot of rain and the whole lot shot up.” From January to July, the cows were on irrigation paddocks, but more problems were about to happen.
DEC 2025 >> PAGE 41
Firstly, they ran out of their water right and when heavy rains finally arrived, the underpass was flooded, leaving the limestone base too sharp for cows to cross.
Tim says the big lesson out of the crisis is to have a feed bunker. “We’ve bought in another 350 tonnes in case there’s another bad season. It’s best to have a reserve if you can.”
Without irrigation, things got really tough. “There were three weeks where we didn’t sleep much, just trying to ring everyone and looking on marketplace to get some feed,” Tim said.
“We used to get through with what we had but we were paying $500 to $650 a tonne near the end. As soon as you get over $300, you make nothing.”
Sometimes they would secure feed, only for the seller to call back and say someone else had offered more money.
The conditions also impacted on mating. “It makes you pick your good bulls and go with them,” Daryl says. “Instead of picking 10 bulls, you might pick four. It was just one of those years when it was hard to get them in calf because of the conditions.”
“People think you’re going again when the rain starts but the debt is still there,” Daryl says. “The bank manager has told us it will take 3-3 ½ years to get back to where we were before.” Apart from the feed costs, they had to re-sow the farm, with Tim describing it as “dead” apart from the irrigation area. Black beetles went through twice, and the cost of maintenance went sky-high. The tractor needed a $14,000 front end and a $40,000 gear box; a power brown out blew the computers on the milk vat. The irrigation system broke down leading to $104,000 repair bill, though Tim saw that as a blessing in disguise. “We had to find hay really quick and we came across Sofra Farms near Shepparton and we’ve been with them ever since.” On top of the disastrous drought, the breakdowns really tested their resilience. “As soon as something broke down, something else would go the next week,” Daryl said. “We’d just say `we’ve got to do it’ and then go to the next one.” They had good support from their bank manager and were able to lift their overdraft three times. While it was hard to get cows in calf, one shining light was the high survival rates of calves under the management of Tim’s wife Kate. Their strong new season milk price from processor Provico is also helping but the costs are continuing and the herd has to rebuild. “We haven’t got the replacements,” Tim says. “We sold 12 in-calf heifers because we couldn’t feed them, along with 35-40 cows and 30 calves. We’ve got to build up the herd again.”

BREED SOCIETY NEWS // AUSTRALIAN REDS
Australian Reds have joined the Australian Dairy Breeds Journal. We chat with chairman Brett Davies about the society and the breed. Brett and Bronwyn Davies have moved farms, changed breeds and even closed up shop for seven months…but they keep coming back to Australian Reds.
“They’re definitely growing in cross-breeding and there is a growing export market for semen sales with Genetics Australia,” he said.
Fifth-generation farmer Brett moved from Swan Hill in northern Victoria to Simpson, near the Great Ocean Road in the state’s south, about 11 years ago.
And why should dairy farmers consider them? “They are healthy and hearty,” Brett says. “They look after themselves and are low-hassle in the herd. They have good fertility and they give you good milk and great milk solids.
About three years ago they decided to take a break from farming and shut down their operation for seven months while they toured Australia and New Zealand. When they came back, Australian Reds were again to the fore. Now Australian Reds society chairman, Brett says the breed has a lot to offer to his farming system and the broader Australian dairy industry. The family business now milks 300 cows on a 130-ha milking platform with a grass-based system and seasonal calving, starting on March 1 and lasting for a tight six weeks. The herd is about 80 per cent Australian Reds and 20 per cent Holsteins. When they shut down the farm for their cross-country expedition, Brett and Bronwyn sold two-thirds of the herd and parked the rest, with a friend near Warrnambool taking 60 and another Australian Red member hosting about 40. “When we came back, we couldn’t find enough Red cows to buy so we had to buy some black and whites, but that was okay,” Brett said. “I’m happy with the mix. If the Reds take over, I don’t mind; as long as the animal fits our system.” In his earlier farming system in northern Victoria, Brett had a predominantly Holstein herd but decided to change locations for more reliable rainfall and to shift breeds for improved productivity. He’s happy with both changes and is confident that Australian Reds can help other farmers, either in cross-bred herds or as the predominant breed. His cows are producing around 580 kg/Ms. Brett has been genomically testing calves and expects to see positive results in the herd. “We’ve been doing it coming up three years so the heifers will be hitting the herd this year and then we can compare,” he said.
“They just go about their business.” This is Brett’s first year as Australian Reds chair. He previously completed a fouryear stint on the board and returned about two years ago. He and the Board are keen to grow membership. “That’s our priority at the moment,” Brett said. “There are a lot of people using Australian Reds and we’d like to engage with them. There are a lot of people using them in three-way crosses so they’re breeding with them but not registering them. “Commercial breeders don’t always want to participate in things but we’d like to reach out and include them.” Brett says there are benefits from being involved. “You get a relationship and mentorship by being with other Red breeders. I’ve made some really good friends by being part of it. It’s a fun way of being involved. We do on-farm competitions and farm walks – it’s interesting to see other people’s herds and learn from how they’re going about it.” The idea to join the Dairy Breeds journal continues that same philosophy. “We didn’t have our own journal so the Board agreed that it was too good an opportunity to miss,” he said. “It’s a way of getting on other dairy farmers’ kitchens tables to highlight what we can do as a society and what Australian Reds can do in their herds.” You can find out more about the Australian Red breed at aussiereds.com.au/ or find us on social media.

While Australian Reds don’t have the numbers of the bigger breeds in Australia, Brett says the population is stable and has potential to grow.
2024 AUSTRALIAN RED COW OF THE YEAR Since being announced winner earlier in the year, Evie 181 calved again in March with a heifer calf by Storflor. She also held to her first service to sexed semen and is due to calve again in March 2026. This time to Vesty. She is now 10 years old and currently has two daughters milking in the herd as well as two grand daughters and now two great granddaughters.
In 2022, she won her class for 7 years and over in the Victorian On Farm Challenge and won the same class for all breeds in the local Agricultural Show on farm competition. PACO FOSKE EVIE 181. Owned & bred by Paul Cocksedge, Tarwin of South
The previous year she won highest production cow in her class (all breeds) in Gippsland, Vic. Now classified EX91-4E (below) the same competition. She’s also placed numerous times in previous On Farm challenges and photo competitions. By the time she ends her current lactation she will have produced over 5,000kgs of milk solids for her lifetime to date. For her last two completed 305 day lactations, she’s averaged over 400kgs of Fat and over 300kgs of Protein with components of 4.8% fat and 3.6% protein and will be close to repeating the same for this lactation. Voting is currently underway for the Australian Red cow of the year for 2025. Members should have received the details of all the nominations and all members are encouraged to vote. Results will be announced at our awards night and Red Tie Dinner in Tasmania in January, then on our Facebook page.

BREED SOCIETY NEWS // AUSTRALIAN REDS
First ever Australian Red TO BE SOLD AT INTERNATIONAL DAIRY WEEK As a rapidly developing breed, it is rare for an Australian Red Breeder to offer up for sale one of their elite females. In fact, there has never been an Australian Red animal offered up for auction at any all breeds elite stud sale since the breeds inception. So what better place to offer up one of the breeds most highly credentialed heifers than the ST Genetics ‘Create The Future’ sale at International Dairy Week. Graeme and Michele Hamilton, Cluain Australian Reds at Mount Gambier in South Australia have in fact decided to offer their very best heifer in the sale. Cluain 6239 Matilda was born in October 2024 and is currently the Hamilton’s highest ranked genomic heifer. In fact, she is actually the Number one Sustainability Index ranked genomic heifer in Australia. The Sustainability Index is a relatively new index but one that best aligns with the Hamilton’s breeding objectives, a view that is shared by many Australian Red Breeders. It is based off the Balanced Performance Index (BPI) but places greater emphasis on production, survival, health, and feed efficiency. She has a genomic BPI of 307, the 12th highest in the country, with ratings of +39kg for protein and +26kg for fat.
This high ranking is even more impressive given that her sire, the Angler bull BLAVAND P is relatively unkunown in Australia. BLAVAND P is a German based sire from the Fuschera-Petersen herd in the state of Schleswig Holstein. His sire stack consists of VR FACIT P x VR FILUR x VR HEL P x VR DALTON. His domestic rating is +59 kgs Fat and +50kgs Protein. He is positive for components, feet and legs, mammary system and teat length. He also carries BB Cappa Casein and is A2A2. Cluain 6239 Matilda’s pedigree contains sires which have been hugely successful and are well recognised by Australian Red breeders, including FOSKE, ALINNE, R DAVID, FYN AKS, ZOBER, VEST DELTA and CHRISTIANBORG.
She has calved five times at 23, 35, 49, 62 and 73 months of age and has produced 2893 kg Milk Solids to date, at an average of 2.26 kg of solids for every day in milk. Her full ET sister Cluain Matilda 4903 also produced well above average. Unfortunately, their mother Cluain 4270 Matilda died in her first calving leaving no production or classification data. In the previous generation, Cluain 3095 Matilda was also a highly successful and extremely high production cow in the Cluain herd. Pictured: Cluain 4909 Matilda (Dam of Cluain 6239 Matilda) Photo: MICHELE HAMILTON
Her dam, Cluain 4909 Matilda is classified VG87, comprising Rump 85, Mammary 88, Feet and Legs 85, and Dairy Strength 85. She is ranked number 2 in the country in the Australian Red Sustainability Index with a value of 968. And with a BPI of 354, she is ranked number 10 in Australia.

This year’s judging was carried out by newly appointed ABS sales manager for Gippsland, Darren Fletcher. Darren is no stranger to the ARDB with one of his previous rolls working for Viking Genetics. Daughters of ABS’s Norwegian bulls, Daughters of Viking bulls and Daughters of Genetics Australia’s bulls were all well represented. Darren certainly has a challenging job commenting that the quality of the entrants has been outstanding. Results will be announced at our awards night and Red Tie Dinner event to be held at Tall Timbers at Smithton in Tasmania on the 28th of January 2026. Last year’s champion Cow, 2282 sired by VRVILPERI. Owned by Owen Simpson.

BREED SOCIETY NEWS // AUSTRALIAN REDS Red semen was then used to A.I. heifers in the following years for ease of calving over their Holsteins and and on their Jerseys to add strength. This was so successful, that they progressively used more and more Red semen over the herd which changed the makeup of the herd very quickly. They are now at the point, where they’re using almost 100% Red.
You would be hard pressed to find a more passionate and dedicated breeder of Australian Reds than Greg Golding from Cohuna in Northern Victoria. However, Greg hasn’t always been that way. The Goulding's first foray into Australian Reds was with the purchase of about 20 heifers almost 30 years ago. At that point in time, the Gouldings were in an expansion phase. The herd was predominantly Holstein, (some registered) with also a few Jerseys. Greg found the Australian Red heifers competed much better than the Holsteins, were aggressive feeders and were much easier to get back in calf. He also found that they handled the long distances that the herd needed to walk with the purchase of the extra land much better than their herd mates.
The Johville Park herd now numbers about 600 milking cows with just under 200 heifer calves reared annually. Calves are reared using a DeLaval automatic calf feeder with four feeding stations which were installed into a completely new calf rearing facility a few years ago. The Gouldings say this has been one of the best things they’ve ever done. Calf rearing has now become a pleasure and the quality of the calves moving through the system is outstanding.
More recently, ARBSKEETA has also been popular with both Red Breeders and Cross breeders across the country with many daughters due to calve in the near future. The latest bull from Johville Park to enter the Genetics Australia team, ARBPADINGTON also looks promising. With an outcross pedigree and a balanced profile. He too, will also be popular and likely to continue the positive Johville Park influence over the Australian Red breed. In 2024, The Gouldings were inducted into the Genetics Australia Breeders Honour Roll in recognition for their significant contribution to genetic improvement in Australia.
The high quality Johville Park herd has been supplying young bulls to Genetics Australia for a number of years. The most notable of which being ARBSCAREBEAR who has many hundreds of daughters all across Australia as well as overseas.
Deep history behind the first ever Australian TO BE SOLD AT INTERNATIONAL DAIRY WEEK The story of Cluain 6239 Matilda began a much longer time ago than most would imagine. In 1899, JT Cole was appointed manager of the Scottish Australian Investment Company’s dairy farm in the harsh environment at Bolaro, near Adaminaby in NSW. In that year he and Frank Mc Caffrey purchased eighteen superior females and one bull from the Illawarra district to improve the herd. JT Cole preferred the strength of the Milking Shorthorn cattle at the time, but they were also selecting with much more purpose. Mc Caffrey later wrote they were selecting the best descendants of the bull Major, a strain of red dairy cattle initially selected by Henry Osborne in the 1850s, before breed records were kept or herd testing practised. They were seeking robust cows, which would consistently outperform their peers, using their powers of observation and gained wisdom. These very commercial goals still dominate the breeding decisions of Australian Red breeders today. The pedigree of Cluain 6239 Matilda represents nearly 200 years of conscious breeding decisions. In 1907/1908 the herd moved to Darbalara near Gundagai on the Murrumbidgee River. Herd testing was introduced in 1912 for better breeding
decisions and enabled the 1924 publicity story of Melba 15 of Darbalara, who set production records. The herd was dispersed in 1926.
The transaction was very commercial, with little thought about careful selection or breeding strategy and many cow families were purchased.
Matilda of Bolaro was selected as a heifer in 1899 from the herd of E Mc Lelland of Omega, Kiama; and her granddaughter Matilda 6 of Darbalara born 1911, was purchased by the NSW Government’s Berry stud herd at Berry. Matilda of Berry was born in 1917 beginning a long breeding heritage. When the amalgamation of two Red dairy cow factions formed the Australian Illawarra Shorthorn Society in 1930, the Berry herd came under the AIS banner.
There were no clear superior families in the first couple of generations, but then some superior individuals started to appear from the Dove and Matilda families descended from Illawarra bloodlines as well as the Lustre family from a deep Ayrshire base. So much so, that these family lines have began to dominate Cluain breeding trends today.
The Berry herd ebbed and flowed with NSW government policy and was finally dispersed in June 1982. During its final years, the aspiring Ron Graham from Nowra noted the qualities of the Berry cows and was able to purchase surplus females for his Beaulands herd, among which were Matildas.
From very modest beginnings and thoroughly commercial mating decisions, Cluain 6239 Matilda now appears in the highest echelons of Australian Red breeding. Graeme says, “We hope the purchasers find her and her descendants to be as profitable for their enterprise, as we have found her ancestors to have been in our herd.”
Ron was involved in the formation of the Australian Reds in 1985 and served the breed in various capacities. In 2000, Beaulands offered a line of mixed aged females for sale. Hamilton’s Run took the opportunity to purchase 42 head to expand their herd, after installing a new centre pivot.

// EDITORIAL Article; Rick Bayne
Seasons of change Carissa Davis could be excused for feeling a bit disenchanted after a tumultuous year in her dairying career. A three-year sharefarming agreement came to an abrupt end, another one was nipped in the bud within days, and now she and her partner Brendon Mihokovic have moved into a farm management role. The big moves have been taxing but as a young dairy farmer, Carissa remains upbeat about her future in the industry, especially her burgeoning Jersey stud Camiko. Establishing Camiko Jerseys two years ago fulfilled a lifetime ambition for Carissa and she is determined to continue breeding bigger and better Jerseys. Carissa moved to Australia with her dairy farmer parents when she was 12, some 25 years ago, and has always had a passion for the industry. “Mum and Dad are dairy farmers so it sort-of runs in my blood,” she admits. The family has been mostly based in South Gippsland and for the past three years Carissa and her partner Brendon share farmed in Longwarry. They are now managing a 100-hectare farm near Yarram, milking a mixed herd, the majority owned by the farm owner, but with 30 from Carissa’s herd. All up, they own about 100 cows, along with young stock, with the bulk now back on her parents’ leased farm. While Jerseys are her priority, Carissa admits she “likes to dabble” and has a mixed herd with Holsteins, cross-breds, Guernsey, Australian Reds and Brown Swiss, though only the Jerseys are registered. Camiko – mixing Carissa’s given name and Brendon’s nickname – came about because of her desire to improve her herd. “I’m a Jersey girl and love my Jerseys and always wanted to get into better breeding,” she says. “I registered the herd about two years ago to try to better the cows and to keep progressing. We’re still trying to improve. It’s starting to come through in our young stock and we’ve bought a few cows from different studs.”
PAGE PAGE 58 58 << << ADBJ ADBJ
She says the registration process was easy. “I knew some people who had registered studs and just contacted Jersey Australia and got it done.” Despite her mixed bag herd, Carissa is breeding towards a bigger Jersey base. “We’re working towards a full Jersey herd,” she says. “Ultimately, I would like to supply Gippsland Jersey, though I do like my other breeds as well, especially the Guernseys and the nature of the Brown Swiss. I’m not 100 per cent sure where it will go but Jerseys are where my passion is. I love everything about a Jersey.” Along with her internal breeding program, Carissa has looked to other well-established studs to help Camiko move in the right direction. Carissa has long been a fan of Brookbora Jerseys and added a Love Lies cow in the past year, along with cows from the Miami stud in south-west Victoria and Lightning Ridge Genetics. In her own breeding program, Carissa also likes a bit of a mix. “When it comes to breeding, if I look at a bull and like it, I go for it. I like Jerseys with a bigger frame and bigger body and always look at temperament and teat length, but I tend to find you can’t go too wrong with a Jersey.”
She will continue to use AI and has tried embryos once with a nice home-bred cow. At the moment, her priority is to get into a stable share farming arrangement. After a three-year sharefarming agreement at Longwarry, the owners decided not to renew the contract in June. Carissa and Brendon moved on to a short-term lease but that didn’t work out and they have now moved again into a management role, returning some of her cows to her parents, though they lease a relatively small farm and can’t have the full herd in the longterm. Carissa and Brendon used a consultant and browsed various platforms to find new opportunities. “There’s not too much happening in sharefarming or leasing in the area so it has been pretty hard,” she admits. “We’d moved all our gear and our cows and young stock but that didn’t last.
Physically and emotionally, it hasn’t been too good.” They are looking for opportunities to get back into sharefarming or leasing. “Dairy is still where I want to be but it’s hard to find the right partnership and to take the next steps,” Carissa says. While they prefer to stay in Gippsland, they would consider moving if the right farm and opportunity came up. “Hopefully there is someone out there who will give us a go,” Carissa says. “I love the animal side of things. I’ve always been big on animal health and rearing calves is something I’ve done since a young age. I like to see them grow and develop. “I’m not a huge people person and I like working outside, so working on a farm is good for me.”
Vale DAVID JAMES
David James was a man whose life revolved around good cows, good people and doing things properly. His passion for Holsteins ran deep, and his eye for a balanced, functional cow was second to none. He began as a classifier with the Friesian Cattle Club of Australia, which later became Holstein Australia, and built a reputation for his sharp judgment and genuine desire to help breeders improve their herds. Never one to do things by halves, David travelled to the United States early in his career to complete an evaluation course and learn from some of the world’s best breeders. Those experiences shaped the stockman he became; practical, knowledgeable and always willing to share what he knew. Many will remember David through his long association with World Wide Sires, where his skills in cow evaluation and mating advice became widely sought after. He had an uncanny ability to match cows to bulls that would take herds forward, helping countless farmers breed better, more profitable cows. In many regions, the term “a David James herd” became a badge of honour, known for cows that milked hard and lasted. David’s work took him across Australia and regularly back to the US, where he inspected progeny and built relationships with top breeders and dairymen. Long before genomics, David relied on his own brand of “David-omics; a sharp eye, deep cow sense and a knack for seeing potential others missed. Beyond the paddocks and show rings, David was the kind of bloke people enjoyed spending time with. Whether it was a field day, a sale, or a long drive between farms, there was always plenty of laughter, a few stories and often some creative problem-solving over a meal or a beer. He also had a soft spot for fast cars and the odd new venture, always keeping life interesting. To those who worked alongside him, David was more than a colleague. He was a mentor, a mate and someone who genuinely cared about the people and cows he worked with. His impact on the Australian dairy industry will live on through the herds he helped shape and the friendships he built along the way.
