It’s mango comp time
CALLING on all mango growers – it’s time to get your biggest and juiciest fruits ready for this year’s annual KP Mango Competition kicking off this week.
FNQ Grower’s president Joe Moro is looking forward to this year’s KP mango competition.
Whether you are a backyard grower or a farmer, this competition is open to everyone with a $500 prize for the winner with the biggest mango.
Last year’s winner was a last minute “whopper” from Andrew Gould, weighing in at 2.068kg and breaking the record for heaviest mango to be seen in the competition in recent years.
Second place will be awarded $300 and $200 will go to third place courtesy of competition’s major sponsor, Lindsay Transport and Lindsay Rural.
All entries must be of Kensington Pride variety and be presented to The Express Newspaper office or to FNQ Growers president Joe Moro for inspection and tasting.
A photo of the mango on scales clearly showing its weight is also required.
