Good Farming Practice Awards

---

In early 2005 the Society launched the Good Farming Practice Awards with sponsorship from Aberdeenshire Council.  This competition is to stimulate further improvements to agriculture in the North-east.  The award is judged through visits to the nominated farms by an independent judge.  Balanced attention is given to a variety of aspects including the unit’s stock, crops, equipment, environmental management, enterprise and general impression. 

 Pictured, from left, are: Alistair Mackay, Cameron MacIver Aberdeenshire Provost Judy Whyte, Matthew Mackay, David Green (judge).
