The Bay of Plenty Young Growers dinner has been postponed until post-harvest due to the uncertainty of Covid-19 alert levels.
The dinner was planned to be held on Thursday following a day full of competitions that would wind up with the announcement of the young grower who would take the crown.
NZ Kiwifruit Growers Incorporated communications manager Dr Mike Murphy said the decision was made as a necessity to comply with level 2 social distancing and hygiene protocols.
