Next Generation Group
Farming is a evolving industry, with new technologies, improving methods and changing regulations all affecting how the next generation will farm.
Our Next Generation Group is designed to improve skills and knowledge and help the next generation of farmers with personal development, as they enter a new stage of their agricultural careers.
The group is open to Cornish Mutual Members, their families and workers, aged 25-45. It is free to join, and a mix of in-person and virtual events are held across the year, consisting of farm tours, presentations by industry experts and more.
See what the group has been getting up to below, and access exclusive videos and content from previous events. To join the Next Generation Group, please contact your local Field Insurance Advisor or email futurefarming@cornishmutual.co.uk
