Although the event is run by Rural Youth Tasmania, it’s is open to all Tasmanians aged from 15 to 30 who are keen to test their agricultural skills and knowledge, and not just restricted to Rural Youth members.

The run-offs will be held at the Agfest site at Quercus Park at Carrick on July 26th, with the finals for the top 10 at the same venue on August 23rd.
