The Simmental breed enjoyed an exceptional opening day at the Farmfair International in Edmonton, Canada.
The four-day show began with the Legends of the Fall classes. Equivalent to an Irish junior interbreed competition, this section sees calves born from January 2019 onwards secure top position in a breed class before going head to head with other breeds to claim the title of Champion Legend of the Fall.
