Sarah Evans

Glamorgan

My name is Sarah Evans and I farm in partnership with my parents on the outskirts of Cardiff, in Pentyrch. I live on the home farm along with my parents and my brother. The farm itself is divided into two; one half is owned, and the other is on a generation tenancy. The enterprise is mixed with a suckler herd and breeding ewes, and we also have a few small diversification projects alongside this.

I have a BSc (Hons) Agricultural Management (Top-up) degree from the Royal Agriculture University, Cirencester. I work on several different farms, most of which are tractor operations roles. I have a keen eye for machinery, especially when they coincide with soil health.  

Since my degree, I have continued my learning and have become more qualified for my role in the farm business. With thanks to Farming Connect I have been able to undertake business, livestock and land courses, I was also a runner up in the Lantra/Farming Connect Young Learner of the Year Award. I still aim to push forward ideas into the business by encouraging more agritourism and educational outlets.   

As part of the next generation group, I am proud to promote the future of Welsh agriculture to advocate this versatile, fantastic industry. However, I will also be raising farm concerns and questions which matter to farmers across Wales.
