Impressive Quality and high competition at the Holstein classes
At the
class with 2nd calvers Matthias Zens put four cows in
focus. His comment “These four cows represent the German Holstein
cow, because these cows possess perfect udder quality, dairyness and
conformation. Matthias Zens final decision gave an advantage to ZR
Imke, sired by Goldwyn and exhibited by Thomas Rohdemann, Großheide.
To
judge the intermediate classes was a really hard job for Matthias
Zens. The Quality of the 3rd and 4th calvers
was impressive and the audience of more than 4,000 people expected
the decision of the judge. But just one cow could be victorious,
Krista the Grand Champion from 2009, she was in perfect show
condition and the one of the only at the German Holstein Show 2011!
The old
cows classes were an impressive sight. The title went again, after
2009 for the second time, to Starleader-daughter Eke Lesta, owned by
Hein Ekenhorst, Hesterkante. She impressed with an perfect udder and
excellent freshness.
