The South Dakota Farmers Union (SDFU) has announced its annual photo contest, running from May 1 to July 31, 2024. This year's theme, "In Their Element," invites photographers to capture farmers and ranchers immersed in their daily work environments, whether on the farm, in the fields, or on the ranch.
Karla Hofhenke, Executive Director of SDFU, stated, “Agriculture is our state’s No. 1 industry. This photo contest celebrates the families who do the work.” This statement underscores the contest's aim to highlight and celebrate the dedication of those at the heart of South Dakota's leading industry.
Participants are encouraged to submit images that effectively depict the essence of the theme. The entries will be judged on their ability to resonate with the theme, and the best photograph will win a prize of $250.
To participate, photographers must submit their photos through the South Dakota Farmers Union website. For contest rules and entry details, visit the contest page on the SDFU website.
This contest not only showcases the beauty and hard work of agricultural life but also offers a creative platform for photographers to share their vision of life on the farm and ranch.
