Colleges course in leadership welcome

Farming needs many things. Better prices, more power in negotiations with buyers and more understanding from government to name but three.

Good leadership is also vitally important. Particularly with regard to lobbying power at Westminster and trying to retain the sympathy of an often-sceptical public.

So we applaud Seale-Hayne Colleges two-week course training farmers and others in the industry to be the farming spokesmen and leaders of the future. The course runs in November and interviews are held in July.

Bursaries are provided by the Worshipful Company of Farmers. So, if you could speak up for farmers see p38.
