General consensus was that the competition raised massive awareness to the quality and diversity of Hereford genetics across the world.
Volume II of the competition will take place in December 2013.
Future developments include using video footage as well as performance data. The main objectives of the initiative include creating more awareness, trade and goodwill between Hereford countries by telling the global Hereford story.
