Field in Focus

How Field in Focus Works

The Field in Focus calendar campaign runs in three phases from April through June. Here’s what to expect:

Phase 1: Photo Submissions

April 1 – May 31

Submit your favorite photos of historic or current Gleaner equipment working in the field.

Submission Guidelines:

• Open to Gleaner owners across North America
• Multiple submissions allowed
• Photos must show real-world use and original ownership
• All equipment must be shown in safe operation. Safety considerations include, but are not limited to:

1. All operators must always wear seat belts and the seat belt must be visible.
2. Operator must look behind her when backing up.
3. Always follow appropriate safety protocols. No shot is worth risking injury.
4. Both hands on steering wheel if not using other controls.
5. Three-point contact must be used for operators getting on and off machinery.
6. When a person is portrayed outside of the machine, the machine and attachment need to be shown in the resting position.
7. Always make sure the task being done is being done properly; always ask questions if there is any hesitation.
8. All safety devices must be intact. As an example, safety chains must be connected to the correct locations, not just the easiest location.
9. Should not have cutting equipment running in the same field with a platform tractor — regardless of operation.
10. We should not see people or animals within 100 yards of cutting equipment.
11. Any riders outside of the main driver/operator should be in the instructor’s seat and wearing a seat belt visibly — only one operator in the cab is best for photos and especially video, unless the photo or video is for training purposes with pre-approval from a Massey Ferguson representative.
12. No kids touching/riding tractor if they are below legal driving age — this includes children riding in a jump seat.
13. No pets touching/riding tractor.

Phase 2: Community Voting

Early–Mid June (3 weeks)

Once submissions close, we’ll narrow the field and open voting to the community. During this phase, Gleaner owners and fans will vote on their favorite photos for each month of the calendar.

Participants are encouraged to share their submissions with friends and family on social media and invite them to vote. Monthly winners will be selected based on the highest number of votes for each photo.

Phase 3: Winner Selection & Calendar Production

Campaign Ends June 30

At the close of voting, we’ll select one winning image for each month of the 2027 Gleaner Calendar.

From there, we’ll:

• Finalize the calendar lineup

• Move into production and printing

• Make the customer calendar available for purchase through our official merchandise site

Photographers whose images are selected will be featured prominently in the final calendar—and will receive a free copy as a thankyou for being part of Field in Focus.
