The competition is split into two categories, one for 3-6 year olds and one for 7-11 year olds. The younger age group are tasked with drawing an arable farm scene with a tractor or sprayer. The older children's task is to draw a futuristic tractor or sprayer. The first prize in each category is a £250 Toys 'R' Us voucher and £50 vouchers for each of the runners-up.
The competition runs until 1st November 2010. The first prize winners not only receive their vouchers, but will also have their winning entries published in a full page display in Farmers Weekly!
Grass weeds are infesting new land every year and post emergence applications are no longer a reliable method of delivering acceptable levels of control. Defy is Syngenta's answer to the problems of black-grass and rye-grass, and it is a key component of all grass weed programmes. Defy pre and post emergence strategies are also effective in the control of meadow-grass in winter wheat and winter barley.
