An independent panel of judges will review and select all British Farming Award winners. There will be a short telephone interview for all shortlisted entries, which you can find the dates for on the Frequently Asked Questions page.

The panel of judges are specific to each category, including one sector expert, one leading farming figure in the field and last year’s category winner. Each category is facilitated by a Farmers Guardian journalist.
