Countryside reporter competition:
The NFU has teamed up with Britains Farm Toys to offer budding reporters £200 worth of farm toys and tractors. All you need to do is write a report of your visit to a farm in no more than 200 words and if your entry is chosen as the number one in your region, the NFU will send you a whole new miniature farm of your own!
Whether it is your first visit to a farm or you've seen lots of different farms they'd love to hear from you. Tell them all about the things you saw, touched or even smelt. Get scribbling your thoughts and make sure you get your entries into the NFU by 30th September 2010.
