CAMELFORD Show itself will this year be kept on its toes as it is judged by the public in the 'show business' competition, run by the Farmers Guardian.

This is the first time Camelford Show has entered a competition, but the committee hopes for success.

Seven agricultural shows across Britain have been shortlisted, and the overall winner will be decided by votes cast online at farmersguardian.com

Around 2,400 people visited Camelford Show last year, despite grey clouds and continuous drizzle.

Starting life as Camelford Horse Show, it evolved into the true agricultural event it is today, serving the farming fraternity with thriving livestock sections and agri-business stands while still embracing local involvement and equine roots.

Located in an Area of Ooutstanding Natural Beauty, the show's other essential element is holidaymakers — providing an attraction and rural experience for the public.
