The farming community plays a key role in society and educating the next generations about life on a farm is crucial. As well as producing nutritious food, farmers also grow crops for medicines and clothes, as well as crops used for fuel and building homes. Farmers care for over 70% of our countryside, manage vital resources like water and soil, maintain miles of footpaths and hedgerows, and provide homes for wildlife. Because this community is so important to the fabric of society and the environment, the right equipment and products are a necessity to keep things thriving. For instance, being provided with metal building kits can help farmers create separate and specific ‘homes’ for areas that need different attention than other crops, animals, etc. in doing so they will be able to produce the best they can for the community.
