八个入围团队会在 5 月 1 日向委员会提交，之后会宣布获胜者。每个方案的细节详见下文。

第一团队参照葵花籽展开设计，设计的构想是能容纳地球上的每个人，把每个人进行压缩，缩小到一百分之一。这样一来，72 亿人就能住进 300 层的世博会展馆了。80 x 15 x 12 米的设计结构会容纳全世界的人口。

第二团队这个设计采用三维无限循环模式，展现了英国的海洋和陆地环境。三维无限循环的设计，展现了食物链的重要性。 馆内的动态景观也体现了英国食品行业与天气、水和土壤周期的关系，还反映了未来的生产技术和流程。

第三团队该设计是采用 1296 个可重复使用的电线杆创建了一片森林。流动性的景观淡化了内部和外部空间的界限， 296 个电线杆构成的森林景观为游客创造了宁静舒适的环境，让游客充分享受这次探索之旅。馆内有公用的平板电脑，添加了一些软件，将展馆变成了一个数字世界。

第四团队设计采用“工作-- 生态-- 自我维持”的模式。为突显世博会的主题，该团队展现了英国农业和技术对世界产生的积极影响，那就是为全球性的问题提供解决方案。游客可以参与设计讨论，体验有趣的设计历程。

第五团队游客会先进入果园，那有片野花草地，后进入“虚拟蜂巢”。 团队将展馆命名为“BE”，配有逼真的音效，游客们可以充分体验一下蜂巢。

第六团队该团队利用水来突显世博会“滋养地球”的主题。当游客穿过一个没有顶的黑色容器时，会看到自己的水足迹。这种设计试图告诉人们食物中隐藏着大量的水。

第七团队该团队的特色在于，世博会结束后，温室还能迁移回英国，成为一个研究机构。整个设计体现了英国的科技创新，对世界范围内的食品生产和消费做出了贡献。展馆采用了一流的温室设计，让游客体验未来的种植模式。

第八团队设计体现了科学研究和农业生产的发展趋势，让游客体验如何去应对世界范围内的食物危机，领会“THINKERS + GROWERS + MAKERS = SHARERS”的主题构思。
