          |  | The origins
            of the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society stretch back at least to
            1854 when the North East Agricultural Association of Ireland was
            founded. |

          |  | The Society
            has played a leading role in the development of agriculture and the
            rural economy in Wales for over a century since its formation in
            1904. |

          |  | From humble
            origins in 1797, and a Membership of just 100, the Three Counties
            Agricultural Society entered its fourth century of existence in the
            Millennium year. |

            Agricultural Society was founded in 1837 to help improve agriculture
            in the region. It is best known for organising the Great Yorkshire
            Show, but this is only part of its work. |
