Enter the 2025 Farmers Weekly photo competition

Farmers Weekly’s 2025 Photography Competition has already received an incredible number of stunning entries – but there’s still time for you to share your best images of rural life before the deadline on Friday 21 November 2025.

The annual competition celebrates the beauty and diversity of all things agriculture.

Photographers are invited to share their photos of the countryside and farming through the seasons – images that celebrate aspects of rural life through your lens.

“Farmers are heroes, maybe not to the government but to little boys and girls who love and adore them.

“No matter what time they get home, how rough their hands are, how bad their day has been, they are still loved by those they work so hard for,” says Amber.

“The pond this year was bubbling with frogs and gave plenty of opportunity to photograph them. It was good fun taking some time to watch the spectacular moment when the pond is full of spring life,” Sorcha says.
