Training for success – Farming Connect shows how training made a difference for six farming families
20 July 2010 PR 1404 A new Farming Connect skills and training DVD and leaflet – both launched today (July 20) at the Royal Welsh Show by Lantra, the Sector Skills Council for the environmental and land-based industries – demonstrates how six farming families in Wales have developed their skills to improve working practices within the business, to meet statutory requirements and to help them diversify into new areas. All the families featured have been able to claim back 80% of the cost of training thanks to the Farming Connect Skills Development Programme, which is delivered by Lantra.
