“The Balmoral Show is one of the biggest and most vibrant agricultural shows in Ireland and is an opportunity to showcase all that is good about our farming and rural communities.

“Our agricultural community has much to celebrate, particularly with the recent awarding of all-Ireland protected status for high-quality beef.

“Working together, we can help farming to thrive and deliver first-class public services, housing, high-speed broadband and good infrastructure for people living in rural areas.

“It was fantastic to speak to so many local businesses and organisations from across South Down as well as catching up with representatives from Ulster Farmers Union.

“I hope everyone who took part had an enjoyable and successful Balmoral Show.”
