Wheat Competition

For over 25 years, the AgShows NSW Wheat Competition has championed excellence in grain production across New South Wales. Recognising the vital role of wheat growers in Australia’s agricultural landscape, the competition continues to highlight best practices in both dryland and irrigated cropping.

Open to growers from across the state, entries are judged on key agronomic benchmarks such as grain quality, yield, protein levels, and resilience to environmental pressures. More than just a contest, the competition fosters innovation, encourages benchmarking, and brings together producers, agronomists, and industry leaders to share knowledge and celebrate achievement.

Whether you're a seasoned grower or an emerging farmer, this long-standing competition offers a respected platform to showcase your dedication and connect with the wider agricultural community.
