Morrow County growers are en
couraged to bring a sample of their
crops in to the fair this year for ex
hibition. “The Commercial crops
exhibit at the Morrow County Fair
is a great way to display and promote
your products“, said Fred Lundin,
agricultural extension agent in
Heppner
According the the 1991 Morrow
County Fair premium book, grain
exhibits must be at least a half a
bushel, plus enough extra to allow
for cleaning losses. Exhibits should
be cleaned before submitting them
this year.
All grain exhibits will be judged
on uniformity, on freedom from
foreign material, on soundness and
on weight per bushel.
Grasses and hay exhibits are
welcome as well. Silage should be
at least five pounds in a plastic bag.
Grass exhibit size varies, depending
on the intent of the lot. Alfalfa hay
exhibits require three bales produc
ed during the current year in the
county. Growers are required to sub
mit core samples from the exhibit to
be analyzed for moisture and crude
protein.
Morrow County is Oregon's
number one potato producer, and it
only takes 10 pound of spuds to
make and exhibit. Potato producers
are encouraged to get their entries in
to the Fair.
Other possible commercial crops
enteries are field com, watermelons,
cantaloupe, apples, grapes, popcorn,
berries, peas, beans, or any other
crop raised in the county. See page
47 in the premium book for sample
size and class and lot number.
Any grower with a question about
commercial crops entries for the Fair
is encouraged to call Larry Palmer,
this year’s superintendent.
