One of the organisers of this weekend's Southern Agricultural Show says it is in good health and will continue in the future.
Ray Gawne, who has been involved in the event for many years, says this year there are a good number of entries and many people and companies have taken stalls.
His comments follow the news that, after nearly 170 years, the Royal Agricultural Show in the United Kingdom is no longer going to be held.
But Mr Gawne says the Southern Show will go on:
