Richard Boyd (Middle Morrey Farm, Whitchurch) has won £1000 of AB Neo ruminant products by entering a prize draw at UK Dairy Day in Telford.
Commenting on his win, Richard Boyd said, "These things never usually happen to me so I am thrilled to have won the prize. I have a 100% Friesian herd and so will be very interested to see the effect of the Axcelera-C on a selection of my calves, and how OptiPartum-C impacts the yield and performance of my cows".
The prize comprises Axcelera-C to accelerate calves and OptiPartum-C to boost the yield of postpartum cows.
Richard Boyd and his family have been farming Friesians for 40 years. He has 280 milking cows on his 150 hectare Shropshire farm.
