Callum Simpson is our Young Farmer of the Year 2025!๐Ÿ†

After a hectic day of competition, the @garioch_yf  member has clinched the top spot and our grand prize of a brand new Quadbike courtesy of ATV services.

Well done to Callum and to all our other finalists for the hard work and effort they've put in over the past few months of competition. ๐Ÿ™Œ

Introducing our runners up for our Young Farmer of the Year Competition 2025๐Ÿ†

In Second place was Scott Limond from @ayryoungfarmersclub.

And close behind was Robert Kennedy from @eastlothianjac in Third place.

The competition this year was incredibly tight, with only the slenderest of margins separating these fantastic competitors from the top spot. A brilliant effort from all our finalists!

Tomorrow is our Young Farmer of the Year Final! ๐Ÿ†

We would like to take this chance to thank all of our competition supporters who have committed their time and expertise for both the final day and throughout the business plan process.

Without them, we would not be able to provide this brilliant opportunity for our members to learn a host of new skills and test their abilities on a National stage.๐Ÿ™Œ

@atvservices @galbraithgroup @royalbank  @cefetragrain @johnstoncarmichael_rural @srucstudy  @nationalsheep @masseyfergusonuk @scotagri @thorburngroup

We will be bringing you all the action from the day on our stories as well as the winning announcement at the Scottish Agriculture Awards.๐Ÿ‘€

๐ŸŽ€ October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! ๐ŸŽ€

This month is all about raising awareness, showing support, and reminding everyone of the importance of early detection. Breast cancer can affect anyone โ€” so make sure youโ€™re taking time to check your breasts (or tatties!) regularly.

๐Ÿ’ก 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime โ€” and while itโ€™s less common, around 1 in 100 men will also develop the disease.

It only takes a few minutes to check for any changes in shape, size, or feel, and if something doesnโ€™t seem right, get it checked out. Early detection can save your life. ๐Ÿ’—

Whether itโ€™s booking a screening, donating to breast cancer research, or simply spreading the word โ€” every action helps. Letโ€™s stand together, wear pink, and keep those tatties in check! ๐ŸŽ—

It's the week of the Young Farmer of the Year Final!๐Ÿ† 

Completing our roster of Finalists is Robert Kennedy of @eastlothianjac . Robert has competed in agri-competitions across the regions and will be hoping this experience will come in handy at Thursday's final. ๐Ÿšœ๐Ÿ‚๐ŸŒพ

All of our finalists are ready and raring to go for this closing stage. On the day, they will have to present their carefully prepared business plans before an expert panel, before taking on a variety of agricultural challenges designed to test their skills, knowledge and adaptability.

All of this will be taken into consideration in their final scores, with the final winning announcement being made at the Scottish Agricultural Awards that evening.

Good Luck to all our finalists! ๐Ÿ™Œ
