VOST Select Sale 10 purchase takes title at 39th FeiraDeza
Nona (Delta-Lambda x King Doc)
In June, the annual Open Internacional de Raza Frisona, also known as the 39th edition of the Open Holstein show FeiraFeza, took place in the Ponteverde region of Spain. The dairy farm Finca La Asuncion Sc. showed Nona, a Delta-Lambda daughter they bought during the VOST Select Sale 10 in 2022.
Nona originates from a strong Germany/Denmark cow family, going back to Tir-An O-Man Neblina VG-87. Her dam, the VG-86 scored Naomi (s. King Doc), is owned by the Ahrends family from Wittmund, Germany, where dam GOL Nachtigall VG-85 - German Cow of the Year 2020 - and grand dam Tir-An Nairobi VG-88 were housed. This genetically significant cow family has also produced the AI bulls Mirando P, Asterix P, Garo Red, Sanseo P Red, and Germany's former number 1 sire Grando-Red.
In 2022, the than 15-month-old Farnear Delta-Lambda daughter Nona, was praised as a 'showheifer with tremendous potential' and was named Champion at the ''VOST-Jungrinderwettbewerb of 2022''. After being sold to her new Spanish owner, Santiago García from the dairy farm Finca La Asuncion Sc, during the 10th VOST Select Sale, she successfully calved and developed into an impressive balanced 2-yr-old with a lot of capacity, good feet and legs, and a well-attached udder. Nona not only won her class but also secured the title 'Vaca Nova Campiona Open' during the Open Junior 2-yr-old Championship!
Nona already classified VG-88 and is projected in 305 days at 13.900kgM with 3,50% fat & 3,56% protein.

A year later, full sister Nancy was also sold during the VOST Select Sale 11 by the Hobbie family. She fetched € 4,400, making her the top seller among the milkers and found her new owner in Belgium.
The VOST Select Sale team extends congratulations to Nona's breeders and owners.
