Activities

The charity's objects are the advancement of knowledge of farming heritage by promoting and encouraging the skills of ploughing the land by traditional and modern ploughs in Scotland. We arrange an annual two-day ploughing competition offering classes in horse, vintage, classic and modern ploughing with champions in each section given the opportunity to represent Scotland at national and international competition. An annual training day is held with world class ploughers offering advice and instruction on ploughing and judging. The Young Ploughers Development Programme selects ploughers annually from all over Scotland to be mentored by an experienced plougher and take part in the Scottish Ploughing Championships. We engage with the local RHET group in the match area to encourage children to come and see ploughing and learn agricultural process's and we assist local ploughing matches throughout the country with the running of their matches.
