<div><font size="2">Hello Brian & Lynne,</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">Re the lack of discussion on the Barnea. Is this just because everyone has heard enough of the debate on the variety? Or is this because instead of being a dismal failure it actually is starting to prove itself?</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">This year is our first time in any competitions (first commercial volumes harvested).</font></div>
<div><font size="2"></font></div>
<div><font size="2">Our results were as follows:</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">Riverhaven Blend (70% Barnea, 30 % Picual) </font></div>
<div><font size="2">Bronze Perth Royal Show, Silver Royal Canberra Show also Top Score Ribbon, Bronze - Olives SA EVOO Show, Silver Olives SA EVOO Show.</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">Riverhaven Extra Virgin (100% Barnea)</font></div>
<div><font size="2">Bronze AOA National EVOO Show.</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">We have been very happy with the results of our oil for the first time with fruit from young trees. Our FFA was very low (between .1 and .25) and the quality seems good. However only time will tell!</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">I believe Gwydir also won awards for their Barnea oil.</font></div>
<div></div>
<div><font size="2">Regards,</font></div>

Subject: Barnea

Where has all the Barnea gone? It seems to be very poorly represented in the
prize list in South Australia. Not yet in production? Pulled out? Not
producing quality olive oil? Any comment from South Australia?

Cheers Brian Chatterton
