ABAB Jersey Breed Class Judge: Arwyn Wilson (TREGIBBY)
19th April 2019
Having been a Jersey breeder for over 20 years, Arwyn has owned multiple winners at major shows across the UK, including Reserve Champion Jersey Calf at ABAB 2017.
Arwyn currently works for Blondin Sires covering Wales. He has fitted cattle at most UK shows including Holstein, Jersey, Shorthorn, Ayrshire and Brown Swiss breeds and has most recently been working with show cattle in Germany.
He has had the pleasure of working at Ferdon Jerseys in New Zealand where he took the Supreme title at the NZ Dairy Event. Also during his time with Miami - Philmar Jerseys in Australia they were awarded Premier Breeder & Exhibitor at International Dairy Week.
Judging duties have taken Arwyn across the UK but judging the Jerseys at ABAB will be his biggest privilege to date.
