Scotland’s farmers and crofters are the cornerstone of our food and drinks industry, rural communities and the beautiful landscape which is admired the world over. Scottish produce is guaranteed to have low food miles and when you buy it you are supporting local communities.

Ahead of #worldmilkday worth celebrating that fact that according to BBC and @FarmersGuardian survey, 83 percent have maintained or increased their consumption of tasty, fresh milk and dairy products. We thank you!

The gang are all here! On the eve of NFU Scotland's autumn conference in Dunfermline, the board finally got a chance to say thank you in person to those who stepped down from duties at the 2021 virtual AGM in February. Take a bow Andrew, Charlie, Euan and James!

Great result! Thanks for supporting calls for mass uncontrolled release of dangerous sky lanterns at Lockerbie to be cancelled. Lanterns present an unacceptable risk to property, crops and animal health and they should be permanently banned.

They say that dogs look like their owners? Director of policy @nfusjonnie put his sheep shearing skills honed on Blackies on Mull to good use yesterday but will he be next to brave the #shearisolation for @RSABI ??
