RAS supports 2025 Berg Show’s Youth Show

This past weekend, young people’s dedication and commitment to their livestock and pets were celebrated at the 2025 Berg Show’s Youth Show, proudly sponsored by the Royal Agricultural Society (RAS).

Despite the Foot and Mouth Disease outbreak putting a temporary halt to cattle, sheep, goat, and pig showing, the spirited young competitors gave their all in the horse, dog, poultry, and rabbit sections.

Their abilities were put to the test in serious showmanship and knowledge categories, and also in fun categories too, such as “Happiest dog”, “Best trick performed”, and a special fancy dress category, where they and their pets could dress to impress.

“The enthusiasm and dedication shown by all the young Berg Youth Show entrants bodes really well for the future of KZN agriculture,” said RAS General Manager Wayne Muller.

“We can’t wait to see them showcase their skills once again at next year’s milestone 175th Royal Agricultural Show, as part of the KZN Youth Show.”

All proceeds from the Berg Show Youth Show went to Estcourt Animal Shelter.
