Nationwide nutrition business Harbro is offering support to two new farming businesses run by young people who have been farming for less than five years in their own right.
The company’s recently launched initiative, Backed by Harbro, will follow their journey as they start out in their career and also provide them with a bumper support package, which includes:
- £3000 Harbro credit for buying feed, supplements and sundries
- Nutritional advice, benchmarking and carbon foot printing services
- Skills improvement plan, including visits to industry leading businesses
- Allocation of an industry mentor, tailored to suit business requirements
- Merchandise package
The company says that with agriculture being a difficult sector to become established in it hopes this initiative will go some way to helping to support two young businesses.
