Crop Competitions
The Surrey County Agricultural Society encourages agriculture and agricultural employees in their various crafts to promote good farming – this is put into practice by the organisation of annual farm competitions. Judges are invited from other agricultural societies outside the Surrey area and spend up to two days inspecting the entries on farms spread across the county – which make up the rich pattern of our scenic countryside here in Surrey. Health of plants, quality of crop, density of growth, soil conditions and weed control are all major factors to be considered when judging.
The classes are listed here with the results so far achieved.
