Barncluth Herd Named British Friesian Herd of the Year

Lodged by Fulton MacGregor (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 20 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates farmer, Roberta Dunbar, on her Barncluth herd being named British Friesian Herd of the Year; understands that the Dunbars have been at Cromlet Farm since 1899; notes that the 185-acre farm is home to 85 pedigree British Friesians, which give an average yield of 7,800kg; believes that the Barncluth herd and Friesians in general are particularly well suited to the type of land and climate in North Lanarkshire; praises the Dunbars on winning the award, which recognises the most productive British Friesian herd from across the UK using a combination of classification and production results; understands that the farm also produces Dunbar's Daisies Farm Fresh Milk, and wishes the Dunbars and the herd continued good fortune.
