Beltie Carcass Belts all Other Breeds!

Peppercorn would like to congratulate both Merv Presland and Peter Koppman on their stunnng success in taking out top honours in the carcass competitions at this year's NSW RAS Easter Show. Once again, these committed men have shown Australia that Belted Galloway beef is the best in the country!

Merv Presland's Belted Galloway steer won the Champion Lightweight Carcass, receiving the Eve Cullen Trophy for the highest scoring Galloway or Belted Galloway steer. Peter Koppman, considered by many of his peers as the breeder of the superior beltie carcass, produced two of the three steers that made up the the Stan Hill team. The team was selected from only five steers. The Belted Galloway team came second in this all-breeds competition, pipped at the post only by the Angus, another Scottish breed.

Peppercorn would like to thank Merv and Pete for their superb efforts in helping to demonstrate that Belted Galloways over the years consistently provide the highest quality meat. People are now recognizing the importance of the Beltie genetics. Good on you, fellas!
