Their presentations on how to manage a successful farm while protecting local water quality so impressed the judges that two of our teams were awarded first and second place. A team from Newton Rigg College came third. Last year we were first and third in the same competition.<\/p>\n<p>The students spent three months reviewing farming practices which help to minimise water pollution. They then produced reports on the issues and changes needed to improve water management on a working farm they had visited.<\/p>\n<p>Judges from the partner organisations selected the best reports and these were presented by the students at the Grand Final, held at the NFU headquarters in Skelmersdale last week.<\/p>\n<p>First prize of \u00a3150 worth of Amazon vouchers plus a trophy and one year\u2019s membership of the Royal Agricultural Society of England was awarded to Reaseheath\u2019s Abbey Lewis, Lexi Barton and Drew Ackerley for their recommendations on how to improve farm infrastructure to minimise water pollution.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-slideshow av-av_slideshow-850714b432a31055e34a1d50ec8f456b avia-slideshow-featured_large av_slideshow avia-slide-slider  avia-builder-el-2  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  av-slideshow-ui av-control-default av-slideshow-manual av-loop-once av-loop-manual-endless av-default-height-applied avia-slideshow-2' data-slideshow-options=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;slide&quot;,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;loop_autoplay&quot;:&quot;once&quot;,&quot;interval&quot;:5,&quot;loop_manual&quot;:&quot;manual-endless&quot;,&quot;autoplay_stopper&quot;:false,&quot;noNavigation&quot;:false,&quot;bg_slider&quot;:false,&quot;keep_padding&quot;:false,&quot;hoverpause&quot;:false,&quot;show_slide_delay&quot;:0}\"  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><ul class='avia-slideshow-inner ' style='padding-bottom: 42%;'><li  class='avia-slideshow-slide av-av_slideshow-850714b432a31055e34a1d50ec8f456b__0  av-single-slide slide-1 slide-odd'><div data-rel='slideshow-2' class='avia-slide-wrap '   ><div class='av-slideshow-caption av-av_slideshow-850714b432a31055e34a1d50ec8f456b__0 avia-caption'><div class=\"avia-inner-caption\"><div class='avia-caption-content '  itemprop=\"description\" ><p>The finalists are joined by Reaseheath staff members Lisa Kennedy and Chris Mann<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class=\"wp-image-74286 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-74286\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.reaseheath.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Reaseheath-finalists-and-staff-1500x630.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"630\" title='Reaseheath finalists and staff' alt=''  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"   \/><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-2de302bf1aa3cf4c9157dbe6f50ac7eb '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Robbie Nilsen, Mark Thomas, Will Ryley and Joe Richardson took second prize and \u00a3100 for their presentation, which included a suggestion of implementing a rain water harvesting system on the farm.
