“Superior Carcase Sire Scheme”

The Hereford Cattle Society is offering a financial incentive to users of certified “Superior Carcase Sires”. These are bulls which have been identified from their Breedplan records as having potential to produce improved carcase quality in their progeny.

Purchasers of a “Superior Carcase Sire” will be eligible to claim £5.00 per calf on the progeny of the bull - confined to a maximum of 100 calves during a claim period of up to 4 years (3 crops of calves) from the purchase date of the bull.

The incentive may only be claimed once in the bull’s life and is confined to the original purchaser.

Claims to be submitted by the owner of the bull at 6 monthly intervals for calves up to 6 months of age by 30th June and the 31st December each year – no payments will be made in respect of any calf that is over 6 months of age at the time the claim is received.

All claims must be supported by an official list obtained by the owner of the bull from, in the case of England, Scotland and Wales – BCMS (British Cattle Movement Service) and in Northern Ireland – APHIS (Animal & Public Health Information Service).

Calves will be subject to a random DNA test for sire verification and checks will be made with the appropriate authorities that the bull was present on the farm at the time of conception of the calves

BULLS QUALIFYING FOR THIS INCENTIVE WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED WITHIN THE NOTES OF THE SALE CATALOGUE.

With Britain set to take centre stage this year, we celebrate all rural Britain has to offer.

PPA EDITORIAL CAMPAIGN OF THE YEAR WINNER 2008 AND 2011

WWW.FARMERSGUARDIAN.COM

By Alistair Driver

FARMING Minister Jim Paice haschallenged British farmers to ‘setthe industry on fire’by leaving thepast behind and embracing theopportunities on offer in today’smarketplace.

Speaking at the Oxford Farm-ing Conference, Mr Paice laid outhis vision for British farmingbased on seeking out new globalmarkets, innovating using allavailable technologies and ulti-mately thriving without the support of direct subsidies.

He also revealed Defra wouldbe hosting an ‘innovation summit’in London in March followed by aseries of ‘practical’regional events.

He dismissed the view of farm-ing ‘as a quaint old industry’ andurged farmers to look to the future.

“We can keep the cosy image of Buttercup in the field produc-ing a few litres a day and the bucolic farmer leaning on his gateWe can sentimentalise farmers assmall players in a market domi-nated by supermarkets at homeand multinational conglomeratesabroad,”he said.

“Or we can set this industry onfire and take the opportunities andface the reality they provide.”

He insisted his comments werenot about advocating ‘big, corpo-rate’ farms over ‘small, family’businesses: “It is about attitude:whether to pine for the old days ofgovernment intervention and pro-tection, or to face the challenges.”

At the heart of his speech wasthe need for the industry to use ‘thebest research, technology andknowledge transfer we can get’ tohelp boost production, while pro-tecting resources and biodiversity.

Driving ambitionMr Paice identified the Agricultureand Horticulture Develop-ment Board (AHDB) as the ‘professional body’ to drive the in-dustry forward in this area and hadasked AHDB chairman John God-frey to address how this could beachieved. He stressed the industryneeded to accept it was competingin a global food marketplace andto seek out export opportunities‘where we are most competitive’.

Shadow Defra Secretary MaryCreagh said food was ‘one of thedefining political issues of this cen-tury’, but criticised the Govern-ment for failing to address all theissues surrounding it.

Highlighting the role farmingand food can play in stimulatingeconomic recovery, she warned ofincreasing food poverty in the UKagainst a backdrop of rising foodprices, exacerbated, she claimed,by commodity speculation.

NFU president Peter Kendallsaid he was heartened by MrPaice’s message.
