The cream of Britain’s free range egg producers were honoured in the annual awards of the British Free Range Egg Producers Association (BFREPA).Andrew Hall, who picked up the award for small producer of the year, impressed the judges with both production and good ranging.

A commitment to conservation helped Clive and Liz Patrick to a producer of the year award.

And now veteran producer Phil Twizell was rewarded for achieving top production and quality whilst pushing the age of the flock to beyond 80 weeks.

The awards were handed out by BBC Countryfile presenter, Adam Henson, assisted during the ceremony by the voice of the BBC’s national lottery programme, Alan Dedicoat.

The winners spoke to FarmingUK TV after receiving their awards.
