National Young Farmers Week: NFYFC in numbers

This week (2-8 November) is the first ever National Young Farmers Week, run by the National Federation of Young Farmers’ Clubs (NFYFC) as part of its recruitment and retention campaign.

It aims to spread the word throughout the agricultural industry and beyond about what NFYFC offers.

It has been campaigning on social media using the hashtags #yfcdoitbest and #morethantractors, to raise awareness that you do not have to be from a farming background to get involved and benefit.
