There was a departure ceremony for the “representative athletes” who won the tough qualifying rounds for the Wagyu Olympics held once every five years. The representative players are the wagyu beef lined up here. As a representative of the prefecture, he participates in a competition called the “Wagyu Olympics,” which is held once every five years. In Yamaguchi City on the 4th, there was a departure ceremony with about 100 exhibitors. This time, the three cows that participated in the departure ceremony and the four beef cattle that departed from each farm will be exhibited. Since heifers are breeding cows, they are evaluated based on their body shape and coat, while beef cattle are evaluated on the degree of marbling and how the meat sticks. Last time, Yamaguchi Prefecture came in third in the beef category. The “Wagyu Olympics” will be held in Kagoshima Prefecture from the 6th.
