PLANNING is well underway for Scotland’s NSA Scotsheep 2022, due to take place on Wednesday, June 1, at Over Finlarg, Tealing, Dundee.

Following a recent organising committee meeting with hosts Robert and Hazel McNee, who farm a successful beef and sheep enterprise on the 740-acre unit, this one-day event promises to be a fantastic, informative day out, with a packed programme already in place.

Major sponsor for the event is Virgin Money, along with mainline sponsors of British Wool, Caltech-Crystalyx, Scotbeef, United Auctions, MSD Animal Health, Shearwell Data, and Agri-Lloyd, with support from Quality Meat Scotland so far.

“After a difficult period of no events in the farming calendar, Robert and Hazel, along with the NSA Scotland and the local organising committee, are really looking forward to welcoming farmers, enthusiasts and school children to Over Finlarg next June,” said event chairman Willy Millar.

“The farm is in a great location and will be of interest to all involved within the agricultural sector. We hope to welcome as many of you as possible to this major Scottish farming event.”

In addition to giving visitors the opportunity of a farm tour to view the family’s pedigree and commercial sheep and beef enterprises, NSA Scotsheep, will also include trade stands, educational exhibits, practical working demonstrations, competitions, seminars, workshops and the show and sale of pairs of ewe hoggs.
