Young Farmers began their countdown to next week’s Great Yorkshire Show with a pre-show stock judging event.
The annual competition, hosted by Askham Bryan College, is organised by the YFC@GYS committee, a joint collaboration between members from the East Riding and Yorkshire Federations of the Youth organisation. The two sides of the county come together each year to run the YFC stand (number 187) at the Great Yorkshire and the stock judging competition is a traditional fundraiser for the committee. This year’s sponsors were the National Farmers’ Union, Farmers and Mercantile and Suregrow.
The overall winning club was Farnley Estate, with Broughbridge second and Kirkbymoorside third.
