The gates have officially opened for the first day of the National Fieldays.

After an online-only event last year because of Covid-19, more than 100,000 people are expected over the next four days.

The Fieldays have been running for over 50 years and in 2021 it's not just tractors on show, there's everything from vegetarian mince and deer milk to tiny houses and a robotic asparagus harvester.

Rural reporter Maja Burry is in Mystery Creek.
