UK agriculture is facing a big challenge: it needs to find fresh new talent while lowering its environmental impact. Technology is progressing rapidly, and bright new people are needed to manage it.

The Pig Industry Scholarship Programme was created because the UK pig industry recognised the need to inform young people about opportunities and get them excited about a career in farming.

After more than a decade, PISP has established itself as an important player in providing graduate talent to the UK pig industry. It’s managed by a steering group of industry and university people, with myself as chair, and AHDB provides the vital resource umbrella to operate it. Harper Adams University has been collaborating with the industry for many years now and it’s in its DNA.

It’s a straightforward programme to complete and students are supported throughout by Harper’s Development Trust. There’s a wide range of interests, skills, and talents available in each cohort, and the programme ensures companies offering scholarship placements get access to the pick of the crop.
