The International Red Dairy Breeds Federation (IRDBF) is a collective group for the red dairy cattle breeds of the world to unite in purpose and intent. The event, hosted in different countries across the world every 3 years, aims to promote the development and sustainability of red dairy breeds globally, attracting dairy farmers and people who are passionate about the red cow breeds.
The Red Dairy Cow Conference 2026 will be a comprehensive event featuring pre- and post-conference tours across New Zealand and a detailed conference program. We will visit over 10 farms and stop at several tourist attractions along the way, including Rotorua, Queenstown and a cruise on the Doubtful Sound. We will see interesting industry locations such as the Fonterra R&D Centre and have the opportunity to listen to several keynote speakers.
