A certificate of Star Brood Status will be awarded to pedigree Jersey cows in recognition of their contribution to Breed Development through the Production and Type achievements of their progeny.

Awards

Awards will be made by the Jersey Cattle Society, following an application being made by the breeder of a potential Star Brood Cow, and will be based on points awarded to the achievements of the dams progeny.

Points will be awarded following each MDC Breeding Plus genetic evaluation proof run, three times every year.

One Star is awarded for every 8 points that each dam’s progeny achieves.
In addition, if any of the progeny achieve Star status in their own right, then an additional 2 points will be awarded for the first Star plus 1 point for subsequent Stars, from every Star-rated offspring.

Each time an application is made and a Star, or additional Stars, is awarded, a new pedigree certificate will be issued which records the Star status.

The pinnacle of achievement is the Gold Star Brood Cow Award presented when a minimum of 40 points is achieved.

Gold Star Brood Cows will have their achievement marked by the presentation of a commemorative certificate to the breeder.

Fee –a fee of £10 + vat will be charged to the breeder each time an award is made.
