The recent North Region Annual General Meeting saw Sally Mair of Turriff & District JAC
\ntaking over the reigns as the Regional Chair for 2023-24 from past Chair, Sarah Mowat of Ross Sutherland JAC.<\/p>\n

Sally works on their family farm near Turriff, focusing on pedigree and commercial breeding cattle along with breeding ewes.<\/p>\n

Sally commented: \u201cI am honoured to be elected as this year\u2019s North Chair, and proudly represent our region. I\u00a0have gained an enormous amount of friendships and training from Young Farmers over the years and I hope to build on this with the members throughout the year. With a full calendar of events back running last year I hope to build on these and have a fun competitive year ahead\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Elected as Sally\u2019s Vice Chair is Beth Douglas of Bower Young Farmers. Having shown a keen interest in farming from a young age helping her father show commercial cattle across the North show circuit, Beth went on to study Agriculture at Craibstone and now works at Pulteney Distillery, producing whisky.<\/p>\n

Beth said \u201cI have enjoyed every aspect of young farmers both competing and socialising across Scotland and I am really looking forward to working with Sally and the SAYFC team this year. I hope I can play a part in encouraging all members to get involved with as much as possible in their time in young farmers – stepping outside of your comfort zone can open the door to so many opportunities!<\/p>\n

I am excited to see what\u2019s in store for the North Region this year!\u201d<\/p>\n
