Monitor Farm Scotland

The Monitor Farm Scotland initiative is managed by Quality Meat Scotland with support from AHDB with funding from the Scottish Government, aiming to help improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of Scottish farm businesses.

The aim of the programme is to establish a group of farms to serve as monitor farms to help improve the profitability, productivity and sustainability of producers through practical demonstrations, the sharing of best practice and the discussion of up-to-date issues.

  • The focus

    The Monitor Farm Scotland initiative is managed by Quality Meat Scotland and AHDB  with funding from the Scottish Government, aiming to help improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of Scottish farm businesses.

  • Farms

    Each of the monitor farms has its own dedicated Regional Adviser and an associated Management Group that will evaluate solutions and best practice before sharing its findings, both with the wider Community Groups and more generally, through various media channels including a dedicated website.

    Working with the facilitation team and management group, each monitor farmer,  utilises accurate baseline and benchmarking information can help to improve the profitability of the monitor farm and other farm businesses in the area.

  • Collaboration

    The success of the Monitor Farm Programme is underpinned by support from collaboration partners. The ethos is ‘Farmer Led, Farmer Driven‘ and we welcome solution-based thinking to share throughout the industry.
