Exhibitor Handbook

HMFD 2019 Exhibitor Handbook 5

Outdoor sites start in size from 3mx3m. All types of exhibits participate on the outdoor sites. These are the majority of sites available. Site fees for outdoor sites include the site, an allocation of passes and power only.

Petticoat Lane (Outdoors): Petticoat Lane contains general interest sites in a high pedestrian area and hence are premium sites. Their location is adjacent to the Country Lifestyle pavilion. The site fees for this area are a refl ection of the demand for these sites and the success that exhibitors experience in this location.

Farm Gate Produce Area (Indoors): The Farm Gate Produce Area showcases regional produce. Ranging from bread, cheese and wine to preserves, small goods, fruit, vegetables and gourmet meats. The core philosophy of

Farm Gate Produce Area is to give consumers direct access to farmers and their value added products.

Located on the southern side of the fi eld days, Farm Gate Produce Area features cooking demonstrations and talks by a variety of people involved in the food and wine industries

over the three days. Farm Gate Produce Area has sites available with either a 3 metre or 4 metre front.

Country Lifestyle Pavilion (Indoors): Country Lifestyle is housed in the Taylor Wood Pavilion and showcases arts, crafts, fashion and lifestyle

products. Sites are available with 2 metre, 3 metre or 4 metre fronts. The daily program in Country Lifestyle includes guest speakers and three fashion parades.

As a guide, the organisers seek products and services distinctly diff erent to those sourced from retail outlets.

HMFD 2019 Exhibitor Handbook 11

POWERCOFFEE MACHINES AND BARISTAS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON EXHIBITORS SITESThere are 10amp and 15amp power outlets available to most sites. A limited number of 3-phase outlets are available. All power outlets are located within 30 metres of most sites. It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to provide a single length 30 metre heavy duty/industrial lead to be used from the power outlet to the exhibitor’s location.

Exhibitors must only use and operate approved portable power boards with residual current device (RCD) earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) protection when drawing electricity from the HMFD supply grid.

All leads and electrical equipment are required to have current “test and tag” certifi cation. The HMFD site electrician will be available to Test & Tag leads and equipment (at cost) prior to the commencement of the fi eld days. Please phone 0429 809 866 to make arrangements.

In the interests of public safety, HMFD reserves the right to remove any electrical equipment or electrical leads that do not meet “Test & Tag” requirements. This may impact on your ability to commence your participation at the field days from 8am Tuesday. HMFD will not be liable for any damage to your stock/equipment as a result of electrical equipment and leads not meeting “test and tag” requirements.

Exhibitors and their contractors need to be aware of underground cables. Please check with HMFD management before digging or driving posts into the ground. Any persons damaging power cables will be liable for the cost of repairs.

Placement of some exhibits may be governed by power requirements. If you are not sure of your requirements please contact your electrician. If your power requirements are not detailed on your application and they exceed those provided, you may incur extra charges for electricity supply.

The HMFD power grid is connected to public supply and therefore can be aff ected by outside infl uences. All exhibitors must supply their own surge protection equipment and regularly save any computer data that may be aff ected by loss of power.

Please provide a copy of your Certifi cate of Currency with your application form.

RAFFLES AND COMPETITIONSAll games of chance and raffl es where tickets are sold are not permitted without prior application in writing to HMFD management. HMFD may in its absolute sole discretion refuse any application.

The exhibitor is required to provide HMFD with a site safety management plan to ensure the exhibitor demonstrates they are working to a safety procedure while setting up, operating and dismantling their exhibits.

The safety of exhibitors, volunteers and visitors must be of utmost consideration at all times. Anyone conducting themselves in a manner dangerous to any of these groups may be asked to leave. Please be aware of the safety of others when demonstrating or using machines or implements on site.

Only displays which have a genuine company link with an exhibitor can be shown on their stand. This means that unless an exhibitor owns, sells or distributes a particular line of product (or service) on a normal, continuing yearlong basis from the principal business house, it cannot be displayed.

Please be advised that any businesses not registered as a shared siteholder on your site will not be covered by HMFD public liability insurance.

HENTY MACHINERY FIELD DAYS - MACHINE OF THE YEAR:This is a “farmer’s choice” award presented to the most outstanding new piece of agricultural machinery exhibited at the fi eld days. It is judged by an independent panel of regional primary producers. In many cases the winning machine has gone on to become a standard piece of equipment on farms throughout Australia.

Judging criteria include the machine’s purpose and suitability, scope of application, construction (durability and design), ease of maintenance and service, ease of operation (including operator safety and comfort), ease of adjustment, availability of parts and overall value for money. The Australian Market release date for 2019 entries must be between 21 September 2018 and 16 September 2019. The machine must be on site for judging on Monday 16 September 2019. Tractors and harvesters are not eligible for this award.

To Enter: Please contact the HMFD offi ce on 02 69293305 or email admin@hmfd.com.au for entry details.

GREATER HUME SHIRE - MACHINE OF THE YEAR:The Greater Hume Shire - Machine of the Year award recognises the best new Australian designed and built agricultural machine and is judged by Henty Machinery Field Days directors.

How To Enter: There are no entry requirements for this award. Nominations are made by the co-operative members unloading the machines – a bit like the packers’ award at the Archibald Prize. Judges then visit each nominated company during the fi eld days. The machine must be Australian made but can feature imported components or materials.

EXHIBITOR AWARDS:Four award categories will be judged and presented at the 2019 fi eld days to the Best Outdoor Large Commercial, Best Outdoor General, Best Farm Gate and Best Country Lifestyle exhibitor displays.

The HMFD Co-operative prides itself on providing a showcase with a professional image, and the latest in agricultural machinery and technology.

These awards are to encourage site holders to strive for similar ideals applicable to their particular industry during the fi eld days.

AGRI-INNOVATORS:The criteria for entries require them to have a practical on-farm application, be based on an original idea of the entrant and not be in full scale production at the time entry. Entries will be displayed adjacent to the main offi ce during the three days of the fi eld days. Judging will take place prior to the announcement of the winner on the Wednesday of the fi eld days.

To enter please contact the HMFD offi ce on (02) 6929 3305 or email admin@hmfd.com.au.

NATURAL FIBRE FASHION AWARDS:Open to amateurs and professionals, the awards recognise the use of natural fi bres – wool, cotton, angora, mohair, cashmere, linen, silk or combinations thereof, in creative but wearable garments. In 2018 a Bernina sewing machine valued at $2199 and $1000 prize money was awarded to the winner of the Best Overall Garment. $500 was awarded to the Best Knitted or Crocheted Garment, Best Accessory and Best in Millinery. The Student Encouragement Award received a Sewers Kit valued at $250.

How To Enter: Visit www.hmfd.com.au/natural-fi bre-award/ or contact Lyn Jacobsen on 0428 690 222.
