| Here are a few comments from those who attended the Awards this year |
| You have created something truly great with the Farmers Weekly Awards – it not only underlines farming’s achievements, and justly rewards its true heroes, but elevates the entire industry. Every farmer not only aspires to be on your shortlist, but shares in the pride of those who won. Farming needs the level of self worth you have brought with the Awards - Tom Allen-Stevens, Oxfordshire farmer and freelance writer |
| Thank you for last night our party thoroughly enjoyed the evening. A great celebration of the industry and all it stands for. It is so good too to reward those folk who toil quietly away on their farms out of the public eye. To the good of all involved in the industry. - William Dickinson |
| Thank you for inviting me to the awards. Not only was it a great evening with good food and entertainment but more importantly a really positive re-affirmation for me of the drive of farmers and their passion to be part of a forward looking and successful industry. - Nigel Gibbens, Chief Veterinary Officer |
