UK: Mistral PR sponsors World Potato Congress photo competition
“We’re calling on photographers who know their King Edward from their Lady Balfour to find their best potato images,” says Mistral PR senior agriculture sector manager Heather Briggs. “Exploring the world of the potato should provide inspiration for eye-catching, thought-provoking (and even humorous!) reflections of life in the potato industry from around the globe.
“Mistral PR supports the idea that talent deserves the opportunity to develop - and World Potato Congress is the ideal arena for budding agricultural photographers to showcase what they can do. We are expecting delegates from all areas of the supply chain in addition to scientists and researchers.”
The best competition photos will be showcased on the World Potato Congress website and at the Congress itself.
The competition categories are:
Growing and On the Farm
Science, Mechanisation and Machinery
People and Potatoes
Markets and Customers
Challenges and/or Successes
The Future
Entries are now being accepted and can be submitted until Monday April 30, 2012.
World Potato Congress 2012, organised by Potato Council, will be based in Scotland at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre in the heart of the city from May 27 to 30.
“WPC2012 has something for everyone and everyone will take something away to make a difference to their business,” affirms Ms Briggs.
