Organisers of the 111th Stratford A&P Show estimated more than 14,000 people came through the gates over the weekend. This year, for the first time, the Stratford A and P Society hosted the Royal Dairy Show. The beef cattle section and the pig were also given Royal event status, which show organisers have described as a huge honour. The Royal event beef supreme winner was Rivendell Delicious, exhibited by K & B Woolley, of Wellsford, north of Auckland, and the supreme pig was Hillview Lilly 6, exhibited by George Schulz, of Levin. Jagersma said the Royal status had attracted entrants from much further afield than usual.
