At the Royal Welsh Show on Avenue F stand 535, Can-Am will be showcasing a selection of key models from its off-road line-up, designed to handle a multitude of applications without missing a beat, spearheaded by the Can-Am Outlander PRO HD7.

The Can-Am Outlander PRO HD7 puts out 50hp and 41ft-lb of torque, so travelling across multiple terrains is now easier and more efficient.

This ATV has also been designed with versatility in mind, boasting a maximum towing capacity of 830kg, which means all the equipment for the day can be towed around, so there is no need to head back to site to restock.

In addition, the Can-Am Outlander BASE HD5 has been developed by the Can-Am R&D team as a work-ready vehicle that combines comfort and performance.

This ATV has ergonomic seats, so long days in the seat are made easy. The consistent performance comes with the help of class-leading power from the all-new Rotax engine, ground clearance, suspension travel, towing and rack capacity.

Furthermore, with the help of the accessory range, each ATV can be customised with accessories equipped with the Can-Am proprietary LinQ system, which be removed in seconds and new accessories added, enabling users to complete the jobs they are performing.

Complementing the ATVs on display will be Can-Am’s SSV line-up, which includes the Can-Am Traxter HD9 and HD10 XU. These vehicles provide users with consistent performance, and both can stay out in the field for longer with the help of their 40-litre fuel tanks.  

Highlighting ATV and SSV security

Can-Am will also be highlighting the importance of ATV and SSV security, highlighted by NFU Mutual’s rural crime report, which records that these vehicles are consistently one of the most targeted in the countryside.

To combat this issue, Can-Am will be talking to attendees about ways they can protect their vehicles and the benefits of Can-Am’s Digitally Encoded Security System (D.E.S.S.) Key, which restricts access to the bike’s electronic ignition system.

The police rural crime team will also be available on the stand throughout the show.

Connecting with people

Rachael Turner, BRP commercial manager UK and Ireland, says: “We’re thrilled to be back at the Royal Welsh Show this year. The event is the perfect place for us to connect with people who rely on hard-working vehicles day in, day out, and it provides us with the perfect platform to showcase the breadth of the Can-Am line-up.

“With such a wide range of ATVs and SSVs on display, we know there really is something for every job and we’re excited to show how our ATVs and SSVs go above and beyond expectations.

“With such engaged attendees, we also believe it is important that we shine a spotlight on vehicle security, which is a growing concern in the rural arena, and explain what we as a business are doing to help keep machines secure as well as highlight technology, such as the D.E.S.S. key system that has been developed to give the end user peace of mind when it comes to the security of their vehicle.”

Prince William paid a surprise visit to Groundswell during the first day of the event, which was hosted on Wednesday, 2nd July, at Lannock Farm in North Hertfordshire. 

While talking to the event participants, Prince William said: “To the farmers here today, I offer my respect and encouragement. You are the heart of this transformation. 

“[…] If we as a society are to meet the challenges ahead, it will be by learning from the land and those who tend it with wisdom and humility.  

“Let this festival be not just a celebration of innovation but a rallying call, for regenerative farming is not a fringe alternative. It must be a foundation stone for British agriculture to help us rebuild the health of our nation.”

‘Huge role’ of British farmers 

Prince William added that farmers have a “huge role to play”, however, they cannot do it alone. He noted that the country also needs to rely on retailers, food manufacturers, and the general public.  

“As consumers, we must re-educate ourselves on what we eat, where it comes from, and the true cost of its production,” the Duke of Cornwall added. 

Prince William highlighted that farming “is not simply the act of growing food, it is much bigger than that”. 

“It is the stewardship of the land, the health of our soils, the purity of our water, and the resilience of our rural society in harmony with nature,” he told Groundswell participants.

‘Hopeful path forward’

Groundswell Festival 2025 takes place on the 2nd and 3rd of July 2025 and is the ninth edition of the event founded by the Cherry family on their mixed farm in Hertfordshire. 

The Groundswell event provides a forum for farmers and the public interested in food production or the environment to learn about the theory and practical applications of conservation agriculture or regenerative systems, including no-till, cover crops and reintroducing livestock into the arable rotation, with a view to improving soil health. 

The organisers said that Groundswell is a practical show aimed at anyone who wants to understand the farmer’s core asset, the soil, and make better-informed decisions.  

It is a two-day event featuring talks, forums and discussions from leading international soil health experts, experienced arable and livestock farmers, agricultural policy experts, direct-drill demonstrations and AgTech innovators. 

Prince William said that regenerative farming offers a “hopeful path forward”, a way of working with nature, not against it, of enhancing soil health rather than depleting it, and of building resilient systems that are economically viable and ecologically sound.  

“It is not a single method or dogma, but a mindset, rooted in curiosity, observation, community and growth,” he concluded. 

‘We will always need a farmer three times a day’

As the landlord of Duchy farms, Prince William has been an ambassador of British farming. He has recently taken part in a meeting at Jeremy Clarkson’s Diddly Squat Farm. 

He then said: “I think there’s a worry with everyone about where they see farming in 10 years’ time, and I always say, ‘don’t forget we will always need a farmer three times a day: breakfast, dinner and tea’.  

“I’ve always said farmers are really good problem solvers. And yes, okay, they may solve the problem. But then at the end of the day, they take that on board themselves.   

“That’s where the stress comes from, and that’s why mental health issues occur in the farming industry a lot. So it’s good to talk about it.”

The show included over 1,500 competitions and welcomed no less than 10 Breed Society National Shows.

The Machinery Mile was extended by a number of new exhibitors bringing their latest bits of kit, including Kaleb Cooper Contracting with his agricultural fleet. There also was a mini careers fair which was demonstrating the breadth of opportunities in agriculture, horticulture, and the rural sector.

The show has always had young farmers at its heart and this year created a raft of opportunities for families and young people working in land-based businesses to take part. Young Farmers from across the three counties and beyond battled it out to see which county came out on top by competing at a tug-of-war, the theme this year being the West End musicals, with the Lord Lieutenant Cup for 2025 being won by Herefordshire.

The National Farmers’ Union Tent was another hub for farming discussions, with president Tom Bradshaw talking to members on Friday. Members of Young Farmers’ Clubs were made welcome with their own village, where they held activities and competitions, such as the Tug-of-War, plus the offer of discounted tickets.

Livestock extravaganza

The three-day event is one of the UK’s largest livestock extravaganzas, with no fewer than 900 classes across 25 judging rings and a prize fund of £125,000 provided by The Three Counties Agricultural Society.

Industry experts from across the UK were among the guest speakers at the event’s Future of Farming Theatre, sponsored by Virgin Money and Lightsource bp, to guide, inspire, and challenge those at the sharp end of agriculture. Building soil health, finding funding and income sources, making the most of innovation, and tackling succession planning and inheritance tax are just some of the issues affecting the farming and horticulture industries that came under the spotlight at the Royal Three Counties Show.

The dedicated forum offered help and advice for growing and improving land-based businesses, including discussions over making the most of assets and finding alternative incomes and support in the current financial climate, ample opportunities for asking questions and networking too, and a new rural careers fair taking place on the Saturday.

Each day was rounded off with the grand parade of livestock in the main arena, with the Three Counties Agricultural Society president, Richard, the Rt. Rvd Bishop of Hereford, selecting a Hereford heifer and calf as Best in Show at Sunday’s grand parade and a Limousine heifer bred by Mr Thor Atkinson taking the enviable title of Champion of Champions.

‘Helping farmers deal with emerging and changing issues’

One of the Three Counties Agricultural Society’s chief aims is to support farmers and the rural community by raising awareness of the importance of British agriculture, providing professional development opportunities, and hosting social events to bring people together.

These included the CLA Big Breakfast on the Friday, Farmers Club and RASE events, and the Stockman’s Dinner on Saturday evening, which focused not only on thanking livestock exhibitors for their show contribution but also held important fundraising initiatives for the rebuild of the Stockman’s Café, due to take place in autumn.

Alice Arnold, Royal Three Counties Show organiser, said: “Over the past five years, the Three Counties Agricultural Society has invested in innovating and delivering an outstanding livestock show in the national farming calendar. With bumper entries and more young farmers than ever, we are excited for 2026 and our next phase of growth.

“We know how challenging life can be for farmers, and we work hard to find experts who can help them deal with the emerging and changing issues facing them.”

Now in its 21^st year, the Pink Ladies Tractor Road Run has raised over £1.2 million for Cancer Research UK’s breast cancer fund since it started in 2004.

This year’s run is set for 6^th July and will see women drive decorated tractors through Norfolk and Suffolk. 

The run starts at the 100^th Bomb Group Airfield in South Norfolk, across the Waveney Valley into North Suffolk, then passes through the country town of Harleston to a public picnic lunch at Gawdy Hall, before returning to Thorpe Abbotts.

Co-founders of the event, Annie and John Chapman, were recently awarded MBEs in the King’s Birthday Honours 2025 for their fundraising work.

Amazing people doing an amazing job

Cecilia Pryce, head of research, compliance and shipping for Openfield, will be taking part in the run again this year in her Dexta tractor – having had to miss it last year due to a back operation. 

“I have lost count on how many times I have now taken part in this tractor run,” she says. “The fact is it’s an amazing day out with amazing people doing an amazing job raising money for a very important cause. 

“Lumps, bumps and scars on hearts and minds are not fun but thankfully many are now removed and followed up with treatment. Unfortunately, not always and many lovely, amazing individuals also lose their battles. 

“Let’s do something for them and their families. Tractors make every normal person smile – they help feed this nation and are an honest work horse! Let’s use them to bring smiles and turn them pink for a great cause.”

Cecilia has so far raised nearly £2,000 – to donate visit her fundraising page.

The event will take place on Sunday and Monday 3rd and 4th August 2025. Balmaud Distillery, a new family-run business based in Turriff, is the lead sponsor of this year’s show.

Each year, the show attracts over 24,000 visitors, uniting people from all backgrounds, as they come to explore the very best of Scottish agriculture, from livestock classes and trade stands to sampling Scotland’s iconic food and drink.

Crowds gather around the impressive main ring to enjoy a packed schedule of entertainment throughout the two-day event.

The Turriff Show is well-regarded on the agricultural ‘show circuit’ for showcasing some of the nation’s best livestock, equestrian, small animal, and dog classes, awarding one of the largest monetary awards in the UK.

In total, 340 trophies are presented, and over £88,000 is paid in prize money across more than 1,500 exhibitor classes.

Animal classes include prime cattle, sheep, horses & ponies, rabbits, cavies, dogs, and pigeons. Industrial and craft classes are for skills including baking, vegetable growing and flower arranging.

‘No two days are the same at Turriff Show’

Exclusively to the main ring this year will be ‘The March of Time’, a captivating procession of agricultural machinery from across the ages – taking visitors on a fascinating journey in time as farm machinery of all vintages parades past the crowds.

The main entertainment lineup also promises a thrilling experience. From the exhilarating Flyin’ Ryan stunt show to the return of the ever-popular and hilariously entertaining Sheep Show, there’s something for everyone over the two days.

“Having been involved in various roles over the years, it’s a real honour to now serve as the fourth generation in my family to take on the role of president. No other event brings agriculture and the wider community together quite like the Turriff Show, and it holds a special place in my heart,” said John Ledingham, president of the 2025 Turriff Show.

“We are delighted to host the annual Limousin Grand Prix Show this year. The Limousin cattle, a breed known for their meat-producing qualities, will be showcased and judged for this prestigious event,” he continued.

Gail Greig, Turriff Show secretary, added: “No two days are the same at Turriff Show – a fun-filled family day out to experience a range of farming activities and opportunity to learn something new are a guarantee.

“Last year, we introduced a horseshoe-shaped marquee combining the arts & crafts display, shopping mall and exhibition all in one – which is set to return for 2025.

“The EQ Food and Drink Pavilion continues to grow, as we welcome new exhibitors to showcase a rich supply of the region’s finest food. They will join other longstanding favourites, including Wark Farm Pies, Louise’s Farm Kitchen, Bakery Lane, Rora Dairy and many more.”

Mr Ledingham concluded: “Agricultural shows like ours are at the heart of rural life. They bring us together to showcase the best of the northeast region – from livestock and horticulture to food, crafts, and the incredible talents of our community. These events are more than just competitions – they’re a celebration of hard work, resilience, and the spirit that defines our farming communities.

“We strive to ensure our visitors get out as much out of their day(s) at Turriff Show as possible. To save money and enjoy quicker entry, we recommend pre-purchasing tickets online through our website to take advantage of our early bird offer.

“Be sure to check our social media for the latest updates on what’s happening. We look forward to welcoming you to Scotland’s largest agricultural show this summer.”

Turriff Show will take place on 3rd and 4th August 2025 at the Haughs, Queen’s Road, Turriff, AB53 4EF. Find out more on Turriff Show website.

Lakeside Farm engages the public with farming, helping them to understand where their food comes from and the effort that goes into producing it. 

Sue Sealey, Lakeside Farm steward, said: “The show offers visitors a place to chat to real farmers and ask any burning questions to someone who really knows the answer.” 

Interactivity is a big element of Lakeside Farm. Visitors are encouraged to use all their senses to explore – whether it is tasting fresh milk and cheese or stroking an animal in the petting area. 

“We are also showcasing a beautiful Highland cow with her calf and a sow with her piglets,” Mrs Sealey added. 

Buzz of the ‘classic farming event’

Are you passionate about poultry? This year’s Lakeside Farm has something special. “In the space this year visitors can learn all about where eggs come from, see the wonderful entries into the section competitions, and meet some beautiful examples of numerous poultry breeds,” Mrs Sealey said. 

One of Lakeside’s highlights will be Richard Cornock – better known as The Funky Farmer on social media – who will be using his farming knowledge to judge the novelty egg competition. So what will he be looking for when judging?  

“Perhaps it’s better to make your selection without any preconceived ideas, but ingenuity and maybe a sense of humour are always something I like,” Mr Cornock said.  

“I’m looking forward to feeling the buzz of the show and being back at a classic farming event. I love looking at all of the livestock and the wealth of farming produce available.” 

Connecting visitors with farming and educating them on where their food comes from is what the show is all about. “It’s really important that the public can connect with farming so that they understand the sheer effort and struggles we sometimes face in producing food, but also the love for the countryside that we have,” Mr Cornock added. 

The organisers of the Royal Bath & West Show said that Lakeside Farm offers a unique opportunity for visitors to immerse themselves in the world of farming, providing hands-on learning experiences and educational insights for all ages.  

Set against the lively backdrop of the show, it is the ideal place to explore agricultural life, all while enjoying the show’s atmosphere. 

The Royal Bath & West Show will be held between 29th and 31st May. For more information and to book tickets, visit www.bathandwest.com.

With increasing numbers of producers rethinking their systems, a dedicated Regenerative Agriculture conference, hosted by BASE-UK and sponsored by Tees Law, will run across both days of the event, featuring farmers sharing their experiences and innovation.  

Rebecca Goodwin, administrator at BASE-UK, said: “BASE-UK is delighted to be hosting the regen conference at this year’s Cereals Event. It is especially exciting, as knowledge exchange is the foundation of our organisation, and the majority of our speakers are members.   

“This highlights the wealth of knowledge, expertise and innovation that exists within our network. Our members work with the system day after day and can provide practical insights and expertise to the industry discussions.” 

Edwin Taylor, chairman of BASE-UK, believes the push towards regenerative methods is being fuelled by necessity.  

“As a result of seeing a significant decline in the resilience and workability of their soils, many farmers are exploring changes to their farming practices to rebuild soil health.  

“Some may have investigated this option when the sustainable farming incentive (SFI) offered support for this transition, but even without such schemes there are still many compelling benefits and reasons to adopt regenerative practices,” he said.

‘You won’t learn anything if you just stay locked up in your silo’

In a session called ‘Enterprise stacking – the regen way’, Seb Richardson, a BASE-UK member, will discuss how he uses different enterprises on his family farm to achieve multiple benefits. 

Seb, a fifth-generation farmer, farms in partnership with his parents on their 700ha mixed arable and beef farm in Northamptonshire.  

He believes regenerative farming offers an opportunity to stack enterprises in the same field and has introduced SFI options, carbon credits, livestock integration and bi-cropping.  

He began his journey to regenerative farming in 2019, when the family turned to a non-plough-based system. “We still focus on food production, but enterprise stacking allows us to do this while diversifying the farm,” he said.  

“We were able to join the SFI before it closed. Hopefully by the time Cereals comes around, we will know more about the next SFI and can discuss this more in depth. 

“Cereals offers two days of gaining knowledge from different people with different specialities; you won’t learn anything if you just stay locked up in your silo – it’s important to get out and gain knowledge from different people.”  

Farm manager John Aynsley, who farms just under 1,600ha on the Skelton Estate in North Yorkshire, will also be sharing his journey at the conference, drawing on more than a decade of experience in conservation agriculture.  

Recently, he has explored enterprise stacking as a way to plan for the future.  

He said: “If you don’t prepare to work with no subsidy, then you may be on the back foot in a few years’ time. 

“Food production is not at the top of this government’s priorities, so events like Cereals are important, as no matter how old you are there’s always something new that can be learnt.” 

Stacking enterprises, like integrating livestock with arable rotations, is important for a farm’s profitability, John noted.  

“It’s not always about directly grazing arable land but using livestock elements (such as applying manure) on arable land, although grazing can be a great opportunity for younger people with small flocks and mobile pens to get involved.” 

The Cereals Event takes place on 11th and 12th June 2025, at Heath Farm, Leadenham, Lincolnshire, LN5 0QE. Tickets are priced at £15 for both days of the event. For more information, visit www.cerealsevent.co.uk.

Cala Homes (East) is proudly continuing its support of the event, marking its seventh consecutive year as a key sponsor, recognising the value of grassroots initiatives that bring communities together and honour local heritage.

Derek Lawson, strategic land director with Cala Homes (East), said: “Events like the West Fife Show are vital in celebrating the vibrancy of rural Scotland, and we’re proud to continue our longstanding support.

“This show brings together everything that’s special about country life – from livestock to local crafts, food to family fun – and it offers a great day out for all ages while promoting pride in the local community.”

Visitors to the West Fife Show can expect a broad array of attractions, including the ever-popular livestock competitions featuring cattle, sheep, goats and horses – both heavy and light breeds. Meanwhile, farming enthusiasts can enjoy up-close access to tractors and machinery thanks to support from regional dealerships and vintage exhibitors.

‘Celebration of our agricultural roots’

Adding to the day’s buzz is a packed entertainment programme, with everything from sheep shearing and milking demonstrations to a children’s tractor zone and baby animal tent. The much-loved Dog Show also returns, welcoming four-legged friends to compete in an afternoon of wagging tails and delighted spectators.

A craft marquee will spotlight local makers and producers, offering everything from handmade gifts to artisan foods – while music, food trucks and bouncy castles promise plenty of options for younger visitors and their families.

The spokesperson for the West Fife Show added: “The show has evolved across generations, but at its heart it remains a celebration of our agricultural roots. Whether you’re a seasoned farmer or a family on a summer day out, there’s something here for everyone.

“Events like ours thrive thanks to dedicated volunteers and supportive partners, so having Cala Homes (East) on board once again makes a real difference to what we can offer.”

Cala said that its continued backing of the West Fife Show complements its growing presence in the region, with recent investment and development in nearby Aberdour through the Inchcolm Green project.

The housebuilder is currently delivering 21 affordable homes in partnership with Fife Council at the former Inchcolm Green site, following the completion of 63 private homes and a wider community investment package totalling over £6 million.

As part of its ‘Community Pledge’ initiative, Cala contributed more than £12,000 to local causes in Aberdour alone, including funding for youth sports facilities, primary school upgrades, and environmental volunteering efforts such as beach cleans and biodiversity projects.

Derek Lawson added: “We don’t just build homes – we’re committed to helping communities thrive. From affordable housing provision to educational partnerships and event sponsorships, we aim to leave a lasting positive impact in the areas we develop.”

Gates to the West Fife Show open on Saturday 7th June at Easter Bucklyvie Farm, near Crossgates, Fife at 8.30am. For full event listings, times, and tickets, visit the official West Fife Show website.
