The aims of the Welsh Black Cattle Society are:
- maintain the purity of the Welsh Black cattle and promote
their improvement;
- encourage farmers to register pedigree Welsh Black cattle;
- market cattle at Society sales enabling members of both
established and new herds to source cattle;
- promote the qualities, characteristics and traits of
the breed at agricultural shows, farm visits, competitions
and through advertising and the media;
- produce a herd book to record cattle pedigrees and maintain
traceability of cattle registered during the year.
We are based at the Royal Welsh Showground, Builth Wells
and also have an office in Caernarfon, North Wales.
Affiliated to the main breed society are breeders’
clubs in South and North Wales and in England. There are also
thriving national Welsh Black clubs and associations in New
Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Germany.
The Society is a registered charity number 244415.
