Entry opens for Harper Adams’ sustainable farming programme
Are you ready to take your farming career to the next level?
Harper Adams University’s Future Farmer Programme is designed for ambitious farmers under 40 who want to make a real impact on the future of British agriculture.
Delivered by the School of Sustainable Food and Farming and supported by Tesco, this nine-month programme combines online learning, hands-on experience, and mentoring to give you the knowledge, confidence, and connections to thrive.
You won’t just be learning in a classroom – you’ll explore sustainability, leadership, and business skills in ways that matter on the ground.
From tackling net zero targets to enhancing biodiversity and profitability, the programme is packed with practical insights that you can take straight back to your farm.
You’ll also benefit from industry visits, networking events, and face-to-face meet-ups with experienced farmers and business leaders, helping you build relationships that last long after the programme ends.

And here’s the best part: training costs are fully funded, so you can focus on growing your skills without worrying about the price tag.
It’s a unique opportunity to learn from experts, swap ideas with peers, and develop solutions for the challenges facing modern farming.
The programme is about more than skills – it’s about shaping the next generation of farmers who are confident, innovative, and ready to lead change.
