Eugowra Show, in conjunction with Central Western Association of Agricultural Shows, hosted the group finals for beef cattle paraders and beef cattle, dairy cattle, merino sheep, meat breeds sheep, merino fleece, grain and fruit and vegetables young judges.
Competitors from Forbes, Parkes, Grenfell, Cowra, Gooloogong and surrounding communities gathered in Eugowra, and have earned a place at this year's Easter Show with their results.
Heather Earney, president of the Central Western Association of Agricultural Shows, says while these are competitions, they also allow the development of the next generation of agricultural show enthusiasts and expertise in industry through education and networking.
This year the group finals were fortunate enough to have very high quality competition judges in Steve Eagles from Paschendaele Ayrshires and Holsteins, Dennis Moxey from Denngal Santa Gertrudis, Greg Sawyer of Elders Molong, Steve Chester of Quality Wool, Brendan Mansbridge of KMWL and Brooklyn Park Poll Dorset Stud, Lydia Herbert previous state young judges winner and Stuart Muller of Western District Exhibit.
The quality of competitors was high, congratulations and best of luck to the entrants heading to the state finals in April.
