Sponsored by Morrisons, farmers from across the UK gathered at The Vox in Birmingham, battled it out for the 18 categories up for grabs.

Alongside farming’s core sectors including – dairy, beef, sheep, arable and machinery – there was also recognition for students, family farms, sustainable businesses, and new entrants coming into the industry.

The ever-increasing sophistication and developments within agri-technology was also recognised, with the category welcoming a record number of entries.

Host Patrick Kielty praised the audience for their innovation and extraordinary commitment along as food producers, innovators and custodians of the countryside.
