Attention all Agricultural Exhibitors

If you are making an application to enter a RAS Agricultural Competition and a discounted Entry Fee is offered for RAS Members, in order to claim the discounted Entry Fee, your membership subscriptions must have been paid and accepted by the Closing Day of Entry for this Competition.

Exhibitors who apply for membership at the time of entering this Competition will not be eligible for the discounted Entry Fees. Members who do not have current membership by the Closing Day of Entry for this Competition must pay full Entry Fees. No membership subscription refunds will be given to Members should any Exhibit, including any Exhibit nominated for a Competition, not be accepted by the RAS.

You could join over 10,000 loyal Showgoers and enjoy the benefits of RAS membership. The RAS is one of the longest-serving Societies established in Australia. Founded in 1822, the RAS assisted early settlers in their struggle to organise their farming resources and to provide a forum for communication and exchange of information.
