The winter crop harvest is a special experience in Australia and at GrainCorp, and we love seeing our growers and communities take pride in the harvest at this time of year.

From harvesting, delivering and storing grain to weather events to the wide variety of crops - we're offering prizes to winning photo entries submitted by people who share their harvest adventures with us on social media.

To enter, simply share your original photos that reflect the Australian grain harvest via Twitter, Facebook or a public Instagram account and tag @GrainCorp (on Twitter), @GrainCorp (on an Instagram post) and/or @GrainCorpLimited (on Facebook) while using the hashtag #GrainCorpHarvest2021.

There is no limit on the number of photos that may be entered. Plus, if you're based in Queensland and northern NSW, and your harvest is wrapping up, you can submit a photo from earlier in the season.

The most interesting, inspirational and exciting photos to take home the prizes for the competition:

  1. Firstplace: valued at $500;
  2. Second Place: valued at $350; and
  3. Third Place: valued at $150.

These will be pre-loaded onto VISA gift cards which will be sent to each winner's nominated address, with a GrainCorp merchandise pack included.
