winning Jersey cow has written to States Members asking them to vote against lifting a ban on bull semen importation.

Kate Le Ruez is the owner of the Supreme Champion at last May’s Island Spring Cattle Show and in a document circulated to the Island’s 53 politicians, she outlines her concerns that it is ‘not worth the risk of losing such a unique, historic herd’.
