The BBC are on the look out for someone who has changed the way people deal with food, from its production to its consumption.
The BBC's Food and Farming Awards will be presented on Wednesday 13 June, and nominations are now open.
The Awards include nominations in the 'Best Food Producer', 'Best Drinks Producer' and 'The Future Food Award', among other categories.
But one award gaining attention is the Food Chain Global Champion Award.
For this category, the BBC are looking for someone who has changed the way people deal with food, from its production to its presentation and consumption.
The broadcaster is also looking for people who have challenged established methods or practices and inspired others to continue with their work.
Finally, the award will be presented to someone whose idea has had a lasting effect on people's relationship with food.
Maggot farmers
Last year, the award was won by South African maggot farmers, Agriprotein, who make MagMeal – a protein source for industrially farmed fish, pigs and poultry.
The feed is made from the larvae of the black soldier fly, which are reared on food waste which would have otherwise ended up in landfill.
Jason Drew, co-founder and director of Agriprotein flew over from Cape Town to receive the award. He said: "I'd like to thank Mother Nature for having tried and tested this process after the last million years. The flies always been part of our past, and now they're part of our future."
BBC World Service Senior Commissioning Editor Steve Titherington said: "The culture of food, the science, technology, politics and business associated with food are key concerns to our worldwide audience.
"Our Global Champion Award highlights both the challenges and fascinating successes being created by individuals around the world."
