The South East Simmental Group has been established for over 30 years. Currently, the Group comprises 45 members. Its purpose is to maintain and promote the breeding and sale of Simmental cattle throughout the South east and nationally. The Group achieves this through:
- Arranging showclasses and donation of prizes and awards of merit, and recommending judges.
