The 2018 Holstein UK Celebration and Annual General Meeting was hosted by the Yorkshire Holstein Club and the newly-appointed Holstein UK President, Peter Waring of the Winton prefix. Venue was the Cave Castle Hotel in South Cave, situated in the picturesque East Riding. Representatives from all four corners of the UK descended on Yorkshire for a sunny and memorable couple of days. The first day's programme began with a visit to J Liversidge & Sons, a 1,500-acre farm in Wilberfoss. The farm left dairy 12 months ago and now runs 1,500 acres of cereals, grass and maize, alongside various contract farming agreements. The farm also rears Belgium Blue x calves, fattening bulls to 14 months and heifers to between 18 and 24 months.
