Farmers Apprentice Competition for 18-25 Year Olds

The farming industry is facing a crisis as it is thought that at least 60,000 new entrants are needed to enter the industry in the next 10 years for it to continue to thrive.

With this is mind, Farmers Weekly have launched a new competition called Farmers Apprentice to encourage young people to get involved.  The competition is open to 18-25 year olds and will be launched at Cereals on Wednesday 13th June with a £10,000 prize up for grabs!  More information about the competition and how to enter can be found on the Farmers Apprentice Facebook page, or you can follow them on Twitter.

We think this is a great idea and are asking our members to share this with any 18-25 year olds they know.  In the meantime, take a look at their fab video – it beats a desk job any day!
