Capture your love for farming in a photo and win!
BASF New Zealand is launching its inaugural Biggest AgriPhoto Competition, inviting Kiwi farmers and rural communities from across the country to showcase their love of farming through photography.
BASF wants to hear from anyone in agriculture with an informed opinion.
Join and comment on BASF's blog via www.basf.co.nz before the end of August and you'll go into the draw to win one of three HP ElitePads.
You may also learn something, or inform others; the blog is about sharing ideas and information, so you'll need to make a comment on the blog to qualify for the tablet. Not such a chore.
Plenty have already joined the conversation and threads are running on a diverse range of topics, from The Scourge of the Invasive Buttercup, to White Rot, to big-picture questions like 'What is Sustainability in our Primary Industries?'
The level of interaction from the moderator is high compared to some more passive blogs, creating the opportunity for valuable discussion on topics relevant to a broad group of farmers and industry professionals.
