RNAS Turnip and Fodder Beet Competition

Event Date
14th Oct to 30th Nov 2024

Event Description

The Society encourages good crop husbandry through two annual competitions, one for growing cereals and one for growing turnips and swedes. Valuable confidential feedback about the opinion of the judges and the scoring of each crop is given to all entries so that they may compare their crops with all the others entered and further improve their own techniques. The projects have attracted wide support and healthy rivalry for the trophies and prize money. Special awards are given for young farmers and for crops in Less Favoured Areas.
The Turnip and Fodder Beet Competition is judged at the end of November, beginning of December every year by our Sponsors Murray Duguid Ltd - Grass Seed Merchants.
