2019 Competing Universities
The University of Sydney has for the second year in a row taken out line honours for the team category at the 2019 GrainGrowers Crops Competition held in South Australia this week.
It was a United States victory over Australia in the individual category with Luke Ryan from Kansas State taking out first place. The top three Australian individual students will now be heading to the United States courtesy of GrainGrowers to take part in a Crops Competition there.
GrainGrowers would like to thank businesses that have supported the Crops Competition that has helped prepare students for entry into the industry.
