Farming Futures is a FREE one-day careers based event which hopes to give students an idea of the wide variety of careers within the land based sector. We anticipate that this will be a hands-on event which will highlight the huge range of job opportunities within this field.

Careers

A career in farming, countryside or conservation is far more than just muddy wellies and a tractor. The modern way we produce food, look after our animals and plan the environment has become increasingly important over the past few decades. From vet to landscape gardener, scientist to florist and farrier to engineer all these careers form part of an industry that believes in investing in young people for the future.

If you would like to find out more about the career possibilities check out the Information for Schools page for options or click on the exhibitor page to see what sort of salaries are available.
