The Santa Marija agricultural show concluded on Tuesday through the presentation of the prizes, carried out by Minister for Gozo Clint Camilleri.
He remarked that it provided an exceptional platform for farmers, villagers, producers and Gozitan craftsmen to share their knowledge and skills with the thousands who visited the Villa Rundle.
The 3-day show, which is a major attraction during the Santa Marija Feast, has been taking place on the island since 1855, organised by by the Agrarian, Industrial and Cultural Society of Gozo.
More than 4,000 exhibits were on show to the public, including local produce, livestock, poultry, vegetables and song birds and farm machinery.
The Minister congratulated all prize winners and thanked the participants. He also extended his appreciation to the organising committee who planned the exhibition, as well as to the government workers who once again, with their work, “ensured the exhibition was a success.”
