Hosting the Silver Lapwing Awards has been a great opportunity to learn from other British farms, according to one of the organisers.
It's considered to be one of the most prestigious accolades in conservation farming, and was won by the Island's first ever Manx entrants last year.
As a result, around two dozen visitors from across the UK came to the Island for the 2025 awards last week.
Paul Fletcher is chairman of the Isle of Man branch of the Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group, while Chris Butler is FWAG's UK chair:
