Goeie mentorskap maak Beesboer van Jaar

28 April 2016

Goeie mentorskap het Voermol se Beesboer van die Jaar, mnr. Kleinjan Gasekoma, op die wenpad geplaas.

Die Voermol Beesboer van die Jaar, mnr. Kleinjan Gasekoma van Reivilo, het ’n boeredag op sy plaas gehou wat deur meer as 150 mense bygewoon is. Gasekoma boer met Braunvieh-beeste en SA Boerbokke en hou ook wild op sy twee plase aan.

Mnr. Cois Harman, mede-eienaar van Agristart, die onderneming wat boere tot selfstandigheid en onafhanklike boere uit eie reg ontwikkel, en Gasekoma se mentor is, sê mentorskap gaan oor die boer en sy suksesvolle vestiging op ʼn plaas: Nie oor die mentor wat die boerdery oorneem, homself verryk en die staatsgeld aan kontrakteurs en subkontrakteurs bestee wat in die meeste gevalle nie die boer se belange op die hart dra nie.

Braunvieh Bloemfontein Show 2016

25 February 2016

Dear Braunvieh breeder

Council cordially invites you to participate in the Bloem show 2016.
Because of the drought conditions in over huge parts of the country, council accepts that to show will not be a priority this year. 
Our AGM has however moved to Bloemfontein and we endeavour to support the show.
There will therefore be a regional Championship at the show.

Kindly take note of the following information regarding the show:
1) The cut off date for ages for the animals for the show entries will be 1 April 2016.
2) Entry fees will be R135,00 per entry per class plus VAT and is payable to the Society. (Last year it was R150 and did we reduce it to accommodate the breeders.)
3) Entries close on 22 March 2016 and no late entries will be accepted.
4) Animals arrive on 27 April 2016 before 14:00 and leave the show grounds on 29 April after the Interbreed classes.
5) One bale of bedding per animal  will be supplied. If you need more you may buy it at R32 a bale at the show grounds. 
6) There will be free accommodation for grooms. Division will take place after the entries have been confirmed.
‎7) Each performer receives two entry tickets.
8) There will an effort to supply grooms with one meal a day and costs will be supplied at a later date.
9) If the classes have too little animals entered, the organisers may group some of the classes together as in 2015.
10) A minimum of 10 animals must be entered in order to show, otherwise it will be an expo.
11) If you are not going to show but attend the meeting, I will urge you to order and buy Agricultural Day tickets here as it is cheaper than the tickets at the show.

Even though conditions are difficult, Council is looking forward to seeing you there as performer or as spectator and we hope you will consider it.

Thanking you.
Braunvieh regards

Braunvieh SA Journal

22 February 2016

Dear Braunvieh Breeder

It is time to design the journal. We are excited about the journal: a beautiful document that can be handed to an uninformed person and withing a few minutes they can form a picture about who and what is Braunvieh SA.

We encourage our breeders to advertise, as discussed telephonically.

A few important matters:

Prices as follows:
R3000 plus VAT for a full-page advertisement.
R4000 plus VAT for a full-page advertisement and a promotional article.
R2000 plus VAT for a halfpage.
R5000 plus VAT for a page on the inside of the cover pages
R3500 plus VAT for fullpage for non members (It is outside advertisers)
R5000 plus VAT for a full page and a promotional article for non-members.
The backcover and the inside of the backcover have already been allocated.

Designing and printing the 2016 journal will be Ivan, (Pendulum Visual Communication, Tel:     051-448 5832/4 Faks:  051-448 5835 www.pvconline.co.za) They will also be available to design breeders' advertisements and they will invoice the breeder directly for the design. (please see attached quotation) The Society will invoice you for the placing of the advertisement.  You do have a choice to design your own ad or have your ad designed by a designer of your choice (see the specs attached). If you have questions, feel free to contact Ivan or Christopher.

The winner of the front-page photo wins the inside page of the front cover page. Kindly send photo's to Christopher Havenga.

Members that do not advertise will be invoiced for the membership list at R300 plus VAT to contribute towards the cost of the journal – as everyone have the advantage when the journal gets distributed.

If you have any input/ contributions, kindly contact us – we want to ensure that the journal is extraordinary!

Regards,

Christopher Havenga
