YOUNG farmers set pulses racing yesterday when they attended a cattle parade in the buff.

The brazen beefcakes, who all come from the York area, were showing their cattle off.

They decided to bare almost all to help promote a new calender called Yorkshire Beef in the Buff, which is being sold to raise funds for and awareness of testicular and prostate cancer.

The farmers do not feature in the calendar, but those that will include the Leeds Rhinos rugby players, firefighters from West Yorkshire, members of the Young Farmer's Association, boxers and soap actors.

Neil Barratt, 22, who took part in the strip, said: "It was a bit windy but it was all in a good cause and it was good fun."
