2018 Cereal Competition launched
Commenting on the launch, UFU president Ivor Ferguson said: “We are really delighted to be running the Cereals Competition this year again for our members. There is no denying that we have a well-established cereals industry here in Northern Ireland, which produces high quality cereals that are equal to the best across the British Isles. There is a wealth of expertise within the industry that we feel deserves to be recognised which is why year on year we receive such a high number of entries.”
The UFU are delighted to be working with competition sponsors Bayer Crop Science; Clarendon Agri-Care; Joseph Morton Ltd; ORIGIN NI and BASF; and Syngenta who have supported this competition for many years.
