LANTRA Scotland - Women in Agriculture Practical Training Fund
This training fund has been established by Scottish Government to support the personal development of women, providing them with additional skills to progress their careers and employment opportunities in Scottish agriculture beyond their current role.
One of the key findings of research into women in farming and the agriculture sector was that there was a clear need for more access to, and uptake of, vocational, practical training for women across the industry.
To all women involved in Agriculture in Scotland, you could get up to £500 of funding towards practical, land-based, skills training. Contact Lantra for more information and application
