The event, which is a collaboration between the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) and the Australian Stockman’s Hall of Fame, is designed to promote best practices in livestock handling and educate participants on the importance of animal welfare. The Livestock Handling Cup is not just about competition; it’s about fostering a culture of respect and understanding for animals. It’s about promoting responsible and ethical practices in the livestock industry. The event features a range of activities, including demonstrations, workshops, and competitions. The competitions are judged by industry experts, and the winners receive awards and recognition.

The event is designed to promote best practices in livestock handling, with a focus on animal welfare and safety. The competition is divided into two main categories: the “Best Overall” category and the “Best in Category” category. The “Best Overall” category is awarded to the team that demonstrates the highest level of overall performance, while the “Best in Category” awards recognize teams that excel in specific areas of livestock handling.
