Livestock farmers to debate business issues

Farmers attending this year’s Dairy Event and Livestock Show will get the chance to debate a range of business topics with the experts.

A series of 20 minute debates will run on both days of the show, covering everything from avoiding cross compliance problems and succession planning to renewable energy options and financing expansion.

Day one will also see The Great Dairy Debate take place, featuring representatives from NFU Scotland, First Milk, and DairyUK, chaired by industry commentator Ian Potter.
