BEEF CATTLE Entry Fees: RUAS Member £12.00, Non Member £15.00 Stalling Fee [per stall]: RUAS Member £30.00, Non Member £35.00 METHOD OF ACCEPTING ENTRIES Due to the heavy demand for stalling accommodation, exhibitors will be limited to booking a maximum number of 8 stalls for beef cattle. Should exhibitors also have entries in the dairy section, the overall maximum will be 10 stalls (beef/dairy). Exhibitors are not permitted to transfer stalls which they had originally booked, but no longer require, to another exhibitor. Exhibitors should note that they are not permitted to make entries from the same herd under different names or joint names. Exhibitors must book the number of stalls which they wish to use during the Show and the stalling fee(s) will be non-refundable but they may enter as many animals as they wish at a much lower non-refundable entry fee. Stall bookings and details of animals, together with stalling and entry fee(s) must be received no later than Wednesday 18 March. If at this date more stalls are booked than the available capacity, exhibitors will be advised of any necessary reduction in Stalls and in such instances only will a refund be made of stalling fees. Exhibitors may not bring to the Show more animals than the number of stalls allocated. Exhibitors in all breeds should note that separate stalls must be reserved for calves at foot. In all classes for cows in calf or cows or heifers in calf, the animal must calve before 31st December 2015 if entered in a beef breed. The prize money may be withheld until the breed Society's notification of acceptance of calf for registration or a veterinary surgeon's certificate is received to the effect that the animal has calved within the stipulated time. All bulls of two years of age and over must be certified to be fruitful. Exhibitors' attention is drawn to the Health & Safety Executive Guidance note (GS36) regarding the safe custody and handling of bulls at agricultural shows. IMPORTANT NOTE: All cattle entered for this Show must be from officially brucellosis and tuberculosis free herds, and each animal must be accompanied by the official brucellosis movement permit, issued by DARD and all cattle from Great Britain or the Republic of Ireland must comply with any import regulations in force. To be fair to each breed, penning is calculated using a three year average. If the number of pens booked per breed exceeds this amount the Society has the right to cut pens per exhibitor.
