Plan to inspire new generation of rural leaders

THE next generation of rural leaders should have more of a say in shaping the farming and food industry's future, says Scottish Association of Young Farmers Clubs (SAYFC) chief executive Penny Montgomerie.

Representing more than 3000 members, including next generation farmers and food producers, the SAYFC believes that by empowering young people to become more effective contributors, Scotland's rural youth will be better placed to take over the reins of this multi-million-pound industry.
