INDIANAPOLIS - Attention all shutterbugs! The 2013
Indiana State Department of Agriculture Photo (ISDA) Contest is
underway!
Contest winners will have their winning photographs framed
and featured in the Offices of the Lt. Governor’s Family of Business in
Indianapolis. They’ll also be the special guests of ISDA at this year’s
Indiana State Fair, where they will be recognized at the Celebration of
Agriculture event.
"I enjoy these photos because they reflect the strong
community pride within Indiana agriculture," said Lt. Governor Sue
Ellspermann, secretary of agriculture and rural
development. “Documenting the hard work and dedication of
our Hoosier farmers in photos will forever capture their contributions to
others, and I look forward to this year’s contest.
The winning photos will also be featured the 2014 Hoosier Ag
Today calendar, a joint project of ISDA, Hoosier Ag Today and Indiana Farm
Bureau. For this reason participants are encouraged to submit photos that are
reflective of our changing seasons.
Both horizontal and vertical photos are welcome that capture
a wide variety of all agriculture sectors, including but not limited to
livestock, specialty crops, cover crops and renewable fuels.
