Despite the New Zealand Agricultural Show being cancelled this year due to Covid-19, some animal events still went ahead behind closed doors at Canterbury Park. The commercial pig competition was held in the eerily empty pavilion. Event organiser, Sean Spencer, who is also president of the Boar Breeders Association, says they had a good turnout with 24 entries and syndicates from as far afield as Napier, Kurow and Te Anau.
