Leading agrarians of the country gathered from different parts of Great Britain to the city of Harrogate. Their goal was to attend the Great Yorkshire Showground congress, during which, from September 13 to 15, 2019, the panel of judges determined the winners who were able to grow the heaviest pumpkins and the longest cucumbers in the whole country.

In particular, it is reported that the winners were determined by many factors and were selected in thirteen nominations. As a result, farmers brought the largest vegetables from their gardens to the competition to impress the public with the size of cabbage, carrots, potato tubers, parsnips, beans, leeks and rhubarb.

It is noteworthy that some competitive vegetables were laid on four scales at once by the control scales, which clearly indicates the impressive mass of “exhibits”.

It is also important to note that the contest at some point was in danger of collapse, because the scales of judges broke under the weight of one of the "contestants", and they urgently had to be replaced.

Note that the winner in the nomination "The heaviest pumpkin in the UK" was a farmer who grew a vegetable weighing two hundred and ninety-one kilogram seven hundred grams.

A married couple of farmers from Mansfield took prizes for the most weighty carrots in the country (three kilograms eight hundred grams) and for the heaviest beets (seventeen kilograms eight hundred grams).
