The Scarecrow Competition
Traditionally used to keep birds away from your crops, scarecrows have stood in fields for 2,500 years everywhere from Ancient Greece and Egypt to medieval Britain and Japan, but their presence at the Sydney Royal Easter Show only dates back to 2019.
Whilst the competition is new, scarecrows have been a part of Australian agricultural history for as long as the RAS and the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
