Keeping the flame
EDS NOTE
Perhaps the most powerful tools a human being can possess are reason and imagination. It is the capacity to conceive that things could be different from what they are and then figure out how to implement the change that truly sets our species apart from other animals. Of course, making change happen also demands exceptional technical ability, otherwise known as can-do.
The ability to imagine, analyse and execute is a quality pos-sessed by the most successful farmers. Where they lead, others follow. To observe this pattern play out in real life, look no further than TLU SA's Young Farmer competition. The contest-ants vying for the coveted title literally bear the future of farming in their hands
It doesn't take too much imagination to realise that the for-tunes of farming greatly affect the future of the nation. That's why it's so exciting to witness the advent of a new category of contestant. In addition to laying the groundwork for the young farmers of tomorrow, TLU SA's Youth Farmer contest has the capacity to ignite youthful imaginations country-wide.
Where the imagination is kindled, the will to acquire the know-ledge and skills to succeed may take flame.
It's imperative that this flame be passed on, like an Olynpic torch to every community.
