Land reform is anything to do with ownership, management, and use of land in Scotland, so these proposals will affect all farmers and crofters. “Scottish Government is consulting on scale of land ownership, compulsory land management plans for some landowners, conditions on sale of land and linking public subsidy and information to accountability for landowners. “This aim of the webinar is to inform and help members understand what the consultation is about so that they can provide their views at the forthcoming regional member meetings or via the NFUS online survey. Members' views are needed as they will shape the NFUS policy response to this Land Reform consultation.” Notes to editors
