Chris stays as co-president Chris Herbert plans to show cattle with his sons for a change at next year's New Zealand Agricultural Show. The North Canterbury farmer has stayed on as Canterbury A&P Association copresident to support the association through a challenging 2020 after presiding over last year’s show and serving nearly 20 years on the cattle committee. This year’s show was cancelled because of Covid 19. Mr Herbert has agreed to stay as copresident to support incoming president Chris Harris. Over the last few years, Mr Herbert’s sons Louie, aged 17, and Charlie, 15, have taken charge of the family’s blonde d’Aquitaine stud cattle at showtime while dad was busy with show duties. “I’m looking forward to just helping the boys with our cattle because the whole time the boys have been showing, I’ve been on the cattle committee and I haven’t been able to do it. “But Idon’t think you ever really step aside; you just move to one side. It’s a lifetime commitment,” he said, emphasising he would continue to be involved in some capacity. The Herberts have taken a year off showing while they complete an embryo programme through the herd, which is based at Omihi, north of Waipara. But the blonde d’Aquitaine cattle from the family farm will be back at the show next year, he said.
