The British Guild of Agricultural Journalists’ 2026 Omnia Digital Farming Award, sponsored by Hutchinsons, is open for entries.
The award is open to any Guild member who had a feature published, from 1 August 2025 to 31 July 2026, on the wider use of technologies and digital tools that help to improve productivity, sustainability or profitability across any farm business, arable, livestock, vegetable or horticultural.
This award reflects the development of technology across the industry, like the development of Omnia over the last 10 years from a precision agronomy tool to today’s much broader farm business management platform. The development of new tools and technologies such as yield performance mapping, cost of production mapping and the new machinery tool provides Omnia users with the ability to use their own data from their own farms, providing an accurate costings baseline to work from.
“We hope the wide scope and subject area of the Omnia award continues to encourage entries from a broad range of journalists across the sectors, as farm business efficiency and profitability become increasingly scrutinised,” says Rachael Roberts, head of marketing for Hutchinsons.
“We recognise the vital role Guild members play in educating and helping farmers meet these challenges and look forward to supporting them through the Omnia Digital Farming Award.”
Deadline for entries is Friday, 21 August, 2026.
