Been asked to judge some crops next month, probably wheat. A bit apprehensive about it as have never done it before! Any advice please?

Hookers!Take the most money/best offer, you won't get it again
I steward on our local one and after a few years i realised that most farms have ’that” field. I can now usually guess which fields or fields we will go to on each farm!it's usually just a "who can spend the most". competition
when Ive done it I like to ask what's been spent, anyone who doesn't know is automatically discounted points as is anyone who used a contractor and similar for anyone using an agronomist as simply paying the bills doesn't make you a great farmer in my book
or you can just judge it as a beauty competition and dam the cost / viability or who is actulay responsible for how it looks ?
I agree about a beauty competition but the criteria is best and cleanest crop not the most economic or profitable.it's usually just a "who can spend the most". competition

What, Shropshire?true - but I cant get away from my own view thats its a business and not a garden
I once judged in Shropshire and 95% of the farms used the same agronomist and same contractor .......... was rather pointless really !
probably why i avoid it all I guess
