A delegation of 12 representatives from Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan traveled to Edinburgh on Wednesday, June 19 to see and experience the best of UK gardening at The Royal Highland Show.

The party was welcomed in Edinburgh at a dinner sponsored by The Aberdeen Angus Society and The Hereford Cattle Society, which was organized by the Kazakh Embassy in Astana and UKTAG. With a shared enthusiasm for great cattle and a shared interest in agriculture, this first night outperformed expectations.

They traveled to the Royal Highland Show on Thursday to see the best of species in action and competition.

The Oxford Champion bulls attracted a lot of delegates, so they immediately started enticing them into a Kazakhstan-exporting collection of semen.

People arrived early on Friday for the ABP Perth tour of the facility, which included a tour of the finished product, as well as the animals arrival lairage. They urged ABP to set up a new plant in Kazakhstan after being both impressed by the competence of the American service once more. After that, it was up to the RHS for ultimate discussions with the breed associates and a quieter day of gifts hunting.

The Angus leader expressed hope that the meeting may remain the deal with producers in Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan by handing out a bag of gifts to each member.

The minibus traveled to the Highlands on Saturday to visit a SRUC farm where breeding initiatives aim to breed and neck a medium-sized beef cow that you produce and rear a calf annually in difficult conditions with little input.

After that, we traveled to the world-renowned Netherton Angus herd, where the McClaren Family welcomed everyone and served cold meat starters before serving wonderful Mac meat.

The family’s outstanding cattle are recognized alongside their democratic perception, which includes the sale of shares of lady cattle for embryo collection and the addition of a livery option where the cattle can be kept on the farm in a manner that appeals to the buyer.

Representatives were amazed at the animals, the beautiful environment and the superb hospitality.

One or two delegates may profit from the Netherton purchase to buy embryos for collection.

After a grueling schedule, representatives had a slower stop to the day on Sunday when we were taken to the SRUC Easter Gate Farm in Penicuik for a journey of the study land.

George Young provided a comprehensive analysis of the research being done to produce creative, simple cattle using input/output measurements as well as development rates, vaginal scores, and EBV measurements.

Methane and coal outcomes and how they can be harvested are being closely monitored by the land and school. Since winning a grant to study this climate-saving technology, the new device that collects these gases and uses them to generate electricity and greenhouse heating was interesting and cutting-edge. Currently, evidence suggests that significant reductions in carbon emissions can be achieved through genetic choice rather than simply reproduce selection.

Without Robert Gilchrist AA Society, Paul Sneyd, Herford Cattle Society, Meruyert Kairbekova, the British Embassy Astana, and the AHDB’s help, this brief vision would not have been the enormous achievement it turned out to be.

Some of the UK breeders have already accepted offers to Kazakhstan in July, and preparations are underway for 2025 activities in the Central Asian area.

In addition, the Central Asian diplomats are hosting members for a trip led by UKTAG called The National Sheep Event in July 2024.
