Watch our interview with Anne Logan
Friday 11 November 2016 - 10:11
Watch our video interview with Anne Logan, veterinary surgeon and Director of Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland (RHASS).
Anne was the first woman appointed to the executive commitee of RHASS, a charitable organisation with more than 15,000 members that supports and promotes the very best of agriculture and the rural-based industries in Scotland.
Anne says:
"I think in this day of equality many women are in professions that are involved with agriculture. I just think that it's a perception that there are not many women in agriculture, but actually there are."
In the video below, Anne tells us more about RHASS and how she got involved, as well as her work as a vet and life on the family farm.
