Last weekend, Southland crop farmer Mark Dillon won his fourth New Zealand conventional ploughing title at the NZ Ploughing Championships.
After winning out in tough conditions, Mark now has a trip to the World Championships in Croatia in 2026 to look forward to.
A dominant performer in his field, Mark has done plenty of travelling in his time and because of the way qualifying works, he's already booked his place at the 70th World Ploughing Contest in the Czech Republic later this year.
