"It is okay not to be okay and it is time we said that more." ❤️🖤 In our latest Young Farmer Focus, Lincolnshire farmer Rosie Finney writes on mental health in agriculture, commemorating her friend Alec Newlove who died last year. "Farmers are proud people and there is no shame in seeking help; in fact, it can take great courage to share what has been bottled up."

"I was a member of Young Farmers for many years, making friends, learning valuable skills, & having fun. Holding positions such as Club Chairman were great stepping stones to roles I’ve held since, like being NAAC Chairman #YFCMakesADifference" Matt Redman @NFYFC #FutureOfFarming

Great to have Spalding @NFYFC round @DaltonSeeds yesterday. Encouraging young people into agriculture is vital! Times are tough in UK Ag at the moment, but without the next generation the future of our industry is at serious risk. #agriculture #seed #nextgen #servingagriculture

💵🌱Getting the Generational planning conversation started at #Cereals2025 Generational planning can often be challenging for farming families and rural business owners. However, Michelmores solicitors are aiming to get the conversation started in a young farmers-focused panel session at the event. Charles Frost of Michelmores, headline sponsor of the Young Farmers Programme, says that, following the changes announced in the Budget last year, farming families must consider the impact of the proposed changes to inheritance tax on their succession plans and broader financial strategies. Young farmers can play a crucial role in this by initiating ideas about succession and bringing their fresh ideas for the future to the table – an area which he’ll be focusing on at the event. “By bringing all family members to the table, the exercise ensures everyone understands the plan and feels confident about their role. “We hope that the panel session can be interactive and would encourage the next generation of farmers to come to the Young Farmer tent armed with questions and ready to share their own thoughts. They may find themselves taking on greater responsibility for their farms at an earlier stage than they previously thought. With the many exciting developments in the sector there is potential to bring about hugely positive change for agriculture. So, let’s get the conversation going!” ❓ Are you a Young Farmer?
