The National Women in Agriculture Awards is open to any UK-based business or women that work within the industry.

Multiple entries are allowed, however please read each category criteria thoroughly prior to entry.

Winners from the previous year may not enter the same category. However, you are welcome to enter other categories.

All entries must be completed using the online form and should be submitted by Friday 31 January 2025.

We appreciate that some entry information will be sensitive, all business information submitted will be in strict confidence (NDA’s can be requested where appropriate).

The judges’ decision is FINAL. No discussions or requests for justification will be entered into.

These Awards are aimed at recognising women who demonstrably work within the UK's agricultural sectors.

Please read all category criteria and entry form questions thoroughly before entering, as this will indicate what is required of your entry. 

Please ensure you place the main component of your entry within the web-form and that you provide the information requested in each question.

You are encouraged to include additional information you believe will support your entry, as well as supporting material, but it should not comprise the main component of your entry.

Your entry will be judged based on the information you submit in the main entry form. You may submit additional supporting information, however this should enhance your entry and not replace the content of the entry form itself.

Answer the questions asked in the entry form!

Don't be shy, now is your time to brag. So shout about all the fantastic things you have been working on.

Include tangible evidence of the impact you, your business, or innovation has made on your own work, team, and/or the wider industry. The judges are looking for hard metrics, particularly on business performance and growth.

Less is more. Our judges have to read lots of entries, be concise and focus on making your entry stand out!

Stick to the entry form. Don’t go off-piste when it comes to entering.

Supporting documents are just that… ‘support’. Your main entry should demonstrate the bulk of your submission.

Compelling stories make winners. Individuals and/or companies that make changes for the better or demonstrate innovation are held in high regard. Tell a story which demonstrates why you deserve to win.

GOOD LUCK!
