Syngenta’s Farm Sprayer Operator Of The Year (FSOOTY) is back for 2018, with an aim to be bigger and better than ever.

This year marks the 35th year since the first FSOOTY competition. It has slowly adapted throughout the decades, each year welcoming a high calibre of entrants. FSOOTY is based around a competition and selection process that assesses sprayer operators' knowledge, skills and expertise. The culmination of the competition occurs at Cereals, with a special awards ceremony in the Sprays and Sprayers arena. However, FSOOTY is more than just a competition - finalists and winners find that their involvement often aids their professional careers, and provides lasting friendships with other sprayer operators around the country. Finalists are often made up of first time entrants and while its a well-known and prestigious award, we encourage anyone considering entering to give it a go.
