Mr Mustard, on the farm, with a turnip

A CROP of Lomond turnips on a Morayshire farm has triumphed in the Royal Northern Agricultural Society’s turnip growing contest.
The annual competition, sponsored by Murray Duguid Seed Merchants, attracted 25 entries from Nairn in the north to Laurencekirk in the south.
The judge, Duguid s Ian Moir, awarded the overall champion title to Niall Mustard’s 7.5-acre block of Lomond turnips grown at Cloves, Alves, near Forres.
Taking first prize in both the Non-Less Favoured Areas and feeding sections, the crop was sown into a flat bed on May 12 and achieved a yield of 70.34 tonnes per acre.
