After an absence of at least a decade from Dannevirke's A&P Show, dairy is returning in 2017.
Interest generated in the recent Manawatu Show inspired Simon Collin to push for re-introduction in 2017, starting initially with dry stock. Entries are already flowing in and organisers hope the full range of dairy will be introduced in 2018.

Having the supreme champions presented before the grandstand on Saturday after the terrier racing was spectacular.
This year a lifestyle category has been introduced in beef to give less well-known beef breeds like Dexters a chance to shine.
