This year’s Balmoral Show saw 3,000 animals taking to the show rings, the largest entry of animals ever recorded for the event.

Adding to the significance of the show is the fact that an increasing number of breeders from across the island of Ireland now see Balmoral as a premier venue and want to compete there.

All of this has been made possible courtesy of the investment made by the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society in new facilities and the commitment of its staff to meet the exact needs of livestock breeders.
