Entries for the 2015 Rural Bachelor of the Year competition will close tomorrow.

Held in the lead-up to the NZ National Agricultural Fieldays at Mystery Creek in Hamilton from June 10-13, it offers a chance for one man to nab the crown and more than $20,000 in prize money.

Contestants need to excel in different heats, from farm work and fitness to demonstrating flair in the kitchen. Fieldays was looking for eight finalists from New Zealand and Australia, over 21 years of age and employed in the rural industry.

Visit fieldays.co.nz for more information.
