There were record entries across all livestock sections over the two days of Lincolnshire Show

A Flock favourite with a successful show career headed up the Dalby Roby Reduction sale of Charollais females held at Worcester market for the Sercombe family, Melton Mowbray

A big crowd enjoyed the sunshine at Nottinghamshire County Show where there was a strong turnout of livestock

Bluetongue restrictions resulted in a somewhat sticky trade at the Premier Sale of Charollais sheep at Worcester but still resulted in a top call of 10,000gns

A ram lamb, Edstaston Dakota from Robert Gregory, Shropshire, topped the Supreme Charollais sale at Carlisle at 14,000gns

In what is thought to be the first time at the show, it was the commercial champions which claimed the sheep supreme

Livestock numbers were up across the board at the two-day Staffordshire County Show, with a particularly strong entry in the dairy section

The sun shone and both exhibitors and visitors were out in force at Nottinghamshire County, one of the first major shows of the season

Ease of lambing coupled with the ability to finish off milk and grass alone make Charollais a prime choice of terminal sire for Stephen Patterson, from Duns, Berwickshire

The Limousin heifer, Brockhurst Tranquility, owned by W.J. and M. Mash, Chesham, and shown by Jimmy McMillan, first claimed the continental championship before going on to take the supreme beef title
