The Young Farmers Party at EuroTier 2024 was a night to remember as the best of the best in the world of social media were honored with the prestigious awards for the “Best Tiktoker”, “Best Instagrammer/Facebooker”, and “Best YouTuber”. It was a star-studded event, with farmers and social media influencers coming together to celebrate the power of social media in the agriculture industry.
The evening began with a grand red carpet entrance, where the nominees for the three categories arrived in style. The excitement was palpable as guests eagerly awaited the announcement of the winners. The DLG (German Agricultural Society) had organized the event to recognize the efforts of these social media personalities in promoting and advocating for agriculture.
First up was the award for the “Best Tiktoker”. TikTok has taken the world by storm with its short-form videos, and the agricultural community has not been left behind. The nominees for this category were all young farmers who have been using the platform to showcase their daily lives on the farm. Their videos range from humorous skits to educational content, and they have garnered a significant following on the app.
But there could only be one winner, and the award went to 22-year-old Emily Jones from the United Kingdom. Emily’s TikTok account, @farmgirl_em, has over a million followers, and her videos have been praised for their honesty and authenticity. In her acceptance speech, Emily thanked her followers for their support and dedicated the award to all the hardworking farmers around the world.
Next was the category for “Best Instagrammer/Facebooker”. With the rise of influencer marketing, Instagram and Facebook have become powerful tools for promoting businesses and causes. In the agriculture industry, these platforms have been used to share stunning photos of farm life, informative posts about farming practices, and to connect with consumers.
The nominees for this category had all made a significant impact on Instagram and Facebook with their posts. But it was 26-year-old Mark Smith from the United States who took home the award. Mark’s Instagram account, @the.farm.life, has over 500,000 followers, and his Facebook page has a strong following as well. His posts about sustainable farming and the importance of supporting local agriculture have resonated with people from all over the world.
Last but not least, it was time to announce the winner of the “Best YouTuber” award. YouTube has become a popular platform for sharing longer-form content, and many farmers have harnessed its power to showcase their farming practices, debunk myths about agriculture, and educate people about where their food comes from.
The nominees for this category had all created compelling and informative content for their channels. But the award ultimately went to 30-year-old Maria Garcia from Spain. Maria’s YouTube channel, La Granja de Maria, has over 1.5 million subscribers and is one of the most popular farming channels on the platform. Her videos about sustainable farming, animal welfare, and her daily life on the farm have captured the hearts of viewers all over the world.
The winners of the three categories were presented with their awards by DLG President, Hans-Martin Giebel, and were met with thunderous applause from the audience. In his speech, President Giebel emphasized the importance of utilizing social media to promote agriculture and to bridge the gap between farmers and consumers.
The evening ended with a celebratory dinner where guests had the opportunity to network and exchange ideas. It was a night filled with inspiration, as young farmers and social media influencers came together to celebrate the power of social media in the agriculture industry.
The DLG’s Young Farmers Party at EuroTier 2024 proved that social media is not just a platform for entertainment, but also a powerful tool for promoting agriculture and connecting people from all over the world. The winners of the “Best Tiktoker”, “Best Instagrammer/Facebooker”, and “Best YouTuber” awards have shown that with dedication and passion, anyone can make a positive impact on the farming community through social media.
