West Wales man has the 'farm factor'

Teifi, who is 28 and from Newcastle Emlyn, came top after impressing official judges, Dai Jones and Professor Wynne Jones, throughout the competition.

In the final round, he once again pleased the judges with a passionate plea to the audience on why he should become the Fferm Ffactor winner, which was broadcast during the live final held at Glynllifon.

Teifi fought tooth and nail to beat fellow finalists Iwan Price, from Cerrigydrudion, and Cardigan’s Phillip Reed to the title.

He had already won an ATV Honda motor bike in the semi-final challenge held during the Royal Welsh Show at Llanelwedd.

“I still can’t quite believe it. I knew it was a close race to the finishing line because Iwan and Phil are strong competitors,” says Teifi.

“I am really happy to have won the Honda bike last week and now the Isuzu.

“Consistency was key – not necessarily winning each task but knocking on the door.

“I like a challenge and I am very critical of my own work by setting high standards and continually improving my performance in all aspects of life.

“The judges have been looking for an ambassador for the industry and I always felt that I could fill that role.”

The Fferm Ffactor team is now looking for enthusiastic competitors to take part in the next series, to be broadcast in 2011. For more information visit s4c.co.uk/ffermffactor
