Farewell to the 19-year-old S. From the Allenbach herd produced 183,965 kg/405,569 lb in her lifetime. She was owned by Allenbach Hans-Ruedi of Switzerland.
Ingrid’s star really rose in 2006. That was her year anyway. In March at the Expo Bulle she first defeated the reigning Swiss Expo winner Wi-Star Kite Nova, Fredi Stampfli, Balsthal SO, and finally won the Schöneutertitel. Then in May she became Miss BEA at the Bernese Elite Show. And in June at the European Championships in Oldenburg (D), she won her category and then won the European Championship of Red Holstein cows with the Swiss group. According to Ruedi Allenbach, Ingrid liked the limelight: “The cow noticed when it was headed towards the ring. And enjoyed it. “
Many other titles and top rankings at regional and national exhibitions followed. Ingrid was a constant in the show rings for years. And anyway in the local Bipperamt. Accordingly, she had very high marks both on the scene with 55 55 98 and at the LBE with EX 95.
The last highlight in Ingrid’s life was in 2019, when she was classified EX 95 for the 10th time at the age of 18. Allenbach Goldwyn Jenny EX 93, her best daughter in the show ring, imitated her mother a lot. Among other things, Jenny was Schöneuter champion at the Junior Bulle Expo 2016 with the Holstein cows and at the RH Night 2015.
But Ingrid’s descendants were also able to distinguish themselves in other stables. Incidentally, also with high breeding values. The oldest daughter still alive is Allenbach Ralstorm Inessa-ET in Thomas Leuenberger’s stable, Burgistein BE. It is classified EX 93 and already has a lifetime production of 75,300 kg. Several strong young offspring are also in Christian Aegerter’s stable in Gurzelen BE.
Most of the offspring are of course on the Allenbach farm itself. After Ingrid gave birth mainly to bulls without sexed cans in the past, her grandchildren and great-granddaughters are now gaining weight. This winter in particular there were many calves from the Ingrid family. For example from Crown, Altatop, Brenaco, Alligator, Genie. ” So Ingrid’s legacy continues!
