Young farmer award draws cream of the crop
Described as the Rose of Tralee of the agricultural world, the FBD Young Farmer of the Year will be announced tonight in Waterford in what is for many the highlight of the farming calendar. To win, the 21 finalists will have to impress the judges with their business knowledge, safety skills, care of the environment and their community involvement.
The first winner of the competition in 1999, Michael Dee, said winning was the highlight of his life.
