IMO all large or medium sized events for all sectors (not just agriculture) should be cancelled this year.

Just started a thread about masks and shows. Given that you can have a number of people in supermarkets surely it means smaller shows could happen if they meet the same criteria and we all wear masks? As I'm not sure there will be a difference for the next 12 months or until a vaccine is found. Something has got to give.

2021 onwards for shows

Masks or No Masks you can’t regulate distancing at an Ag Show

Only way to do it would be barriers & cordons and limit the entry to 25% of normal year’s attendance

Financially it would be viable with 25% footfall

Heckington Show, The Largest Village show in England has been cancelled. A Fabulous 2 day show in Late July. That is nearly all the shows with Lincoln Red classes gone!!

Missed Lamma and can’t even imagine there going to be any other agri shows this year of any size. Bleady hard for all involved .
