Ms Blight will represent Wagin Woolorama for the next 12 months, including at its 50th anniversary event on March 10-11 next year.
The 50th anniversary event was scheduled to take place in March this year but had to be cancelled just days before due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Ms Blight will also be destined to represent Wagin Woolorama at the State final at the Perth Royal Show next September.
Fellow contestants in a high calibre field were local farmhand and diesel mechanic Jack Stallard and Grace Adams, who is also working as a farmhand while studying a Bachelor of Education degree part-time.
Judges were Shire of Wagin acting chief executive officer Ian McCabe, 2022 Wagin Woolorama Rural Ambassador Lucilee Iles and Farm Weekly business development and sales manager Wendy Gould.
