The Cane Tube Competition

1st prize $10,000  2nd prize $5,000  School prize $5,000

As long as it is rated G, is under 2 minutes, is a positive piece featuring farming relevant content including the good practices being supported by the Australian Government's Reef Rescue program, your video can take any style – it could be a music video, a comedy skit, a cartoon, a documentary, to name just a few ideas.

GETTING STARTED

• You can use Canegrowers' website to learn about the sugarcane industry:

 

• You can use any of the movie footage on www.canegrowers.com.au/virtualbustour (high resolution versions on DVD are available on request).

• Look on the website for example clips developed by Yeo Valley Organic in the UK to promote good farming practices and commitment to protecting the environment and producing good quality foods – all in a fun way:

• Canegrowers have started on an example called Sugarpants - which you can use - or better still - use the brochure to make your own entry from scratch.
