Future Farming for Success Event

NFU Scotland are inviting young farmers to a free event which will focus on the future of young farmers in Dumfries and Galloway.

The event at Laggan Outdoor, Gatehouse of Fleet on 18 May will centre on the question: If the average age of a farmer in Dumfries and Galloway was 35, would things be different?

Gary Mitchell, Regional Chairman for Dumfries and Galloway will chair the event, which will explore the future of the younger farmer and next generation in the region whilst sharing opinions, ideas and ambitions. 

Four young and inspiring individuals will speak about what they have done and how they have overcome challenges, with break-out sessions following later in the day. Dinner will be provided and there will be a tour of Laggan Outdoor.

Booking is essential, contact Teresa Dougall, NFU Scotland Dumfries and Galloway Regional Manager on 07718 425053 or email teresa.dougall@nfus.org.uk.
