Locals from Finley, Berrigan and Deniliquin had their grain samples collected, cleaned and presented to the 2024 show judges.
From the four main districts covering NSW - southern, central, western and northern - there were 41 different categories of winter and summer crops presented.
Locals achieved fabulous results across several crop types.
Trudy and Chris Fanning from Deniliquin claimed the Champion Oilseed of the Show with their Trophy canola.
GJ and PA Parr from Berrigan presented an outstanding crop of Sceptre wheat that achieved Reserve Champion Hard Wheat of the show,
Michael Hawkins from Finley exhibited Opus rice that achieved first place in that category.
I would like to acknowledge Arthur Dempster from Dempster Seed Grading Berrigan for his efforts in collecting many outstanding seed samples on my behalf.
Thank you to all the participants in this 2024 Royal Easter Show.
I encourage further participation from farmers for next years show.
Congratulations to all exhibitors.
