Join Women in Agriculture Scotland and make a difference!

It is well reported that women play an active and essential role in Scottish agriculture at all levels. There are women already running their own farm, croft or smallholding, and doing a fantastic job. There are excellent and talented women leaders in Scottish Agriculture.

However, there are also many women who have been excluded by outdated attitudes and behaviours, far too few represented in leadership roles and there are still too many barriers for women to reach their full potential.

The aim of Women in Agriculture Scotland is to support, inspire and develop women in Scottish Agriculture to achieve their aspirations and create a more progressive, successful and inclusive industry.

The objects of the Association are

Support

To support members to build and foster networks within the agricultural industry.

Equality

To act on behalf of members to influence and further the progression of women in agriculture to achieve equality of opportunity in the industry.

Inspire

To inspire members to reach their full potential.

Develop

To develop members personally and professionally.

If you agree with these aims and objects, you can join Women in Agriculture Scotland.

Membership is open to men, women, young old and everyone in between

Membership is free.

Here are what a few of our members say

“Women in Agriculture provides great opportunities to meet like minded people keen to improve their agricultural knowledge.”

"The group is a great forum for me as a rural businesswoman to meet and discuss rural issues that I may have concerns about. Meeting with your peers and networking with women in agriculture allows free flow of expression and nurturing of new ideas and common interests."
