About this event
With agriculture on the cusp of huge change amid a shifting regulatory landscape, as well as coping with external influences such as climate change, coronavirus and Brexit, tomorrow's farmers will need radically different skills and mindsets in order to thrive.
To support agriculture's next generation, Farmers Guardian has joined forces with The Louise Hartley Memorial Fund to bring you a virtual event on February 17th at 7.30pm - building resilience in agriculture.
Many of you will be familiar with the foundation which was set up by the family of Louise Hartley, a former FG livestock reporter who died aged just 24 in 2016 from a rare form of ovarian cancer. A hugely popular member of the farming community, the Hartley family has raised thousands of pounds in her memory and uses it to aid the development of young people in agriculture, including scholarships and a study tour to New Zealand in 2019. This unwavering dedication for the next generation continues in 2021, with this free virtual event which will allow as many young farmers to benefit and take part as possible.
We’re inviting you to join us from home to take part in discussion and debate, live chat, ask questions and tell us about your experience. We’re asking:

Support for this webinar is also being provided by Lancaster and Morecambe Agricultural and Horticultural Society. Keen to support young people in agriculture, it has thrown its weight behind the webinar in lieu of its normal activities which have been cancelled due to Covid-19 and the pandemic.
