The most eye catching sight in the Zhejiang Agricultural Fair was the Zhejiang Best Rice Competition on November 25. Ten kinds of Zhejiang rice were cooked and tasted on the spot.
This year's best rice competition is distinguished from the former ones because of its special judging system--the only criteria is whether or not the rice is tasteful, which is decided by 100 citizens randomly selected. After tasting all the 10 kinds of rice, the citizens (i.e., judges) would give the ping-pong ball to the one they thinks the best.
The ten kinds of rice that took part in the competition have been awarded golden prizes of 2016 Zhejiang Good Rice by the Department of Agriculture of Zhejiang Province. Three of them were Ningbo high quality rice: Huaxigu rice, Yudong rice and Lanju Changshou Organic Rice; they all got high ratings. Besides, three other kinds of rice produced by main agricultural production sectors are awarded excellence prizes
