JUST hours remain to nominate a Limestone Coast rural community as South Australia’s best agricultural town.
The Agricultural Town of the Year award recognises South Australian towns that are excelling in agriculture and the flow-on effect this has on a township and its community.
Primary Industries and Regional Development Minister David Basham encouraged communities to get involved and nominate their town.
“This award celebrates the key role of primary industries to our state, including field crops, horticulture, meat and livestock, dairy, grape and wine, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture,” Mr Basham said.
The award is not limited to farmers but also highlights the wider community that supports them.
“It gives regional communities the opportunity to reflect on their contributions to South Australia’s economic and social fabric and increase awareness of their town and agricultural contribution,” Mr Basham said.
The winner will be announced in November at the 2021 Regional Showcase Awards,
