The Kelso Ram Sales is the largest one-day ram sale in the UK and attracts huge crowds with people coming from all over the country to buy and sell tups.

The 2026 sale offers 4,307 Rams covering 17 breeds spread across 14 covered sale rings, including over 500 Bluefaced Leicester’s, over 1100 Suffolks and over 1300 Texels. The sale also includes some rarer breeds such as the Hampshire & Oxford Downs and Easycare.

AgriScot, now widely regarded as one of the premier events in UK agriculture, continues to develop its appeal to all sectors of the industry… both to the trade and to a wide cross section of farmers eager to seek out the products, services, advice and information necessary for their farming businesses.

For more information and to register go to the AgriScot website.

Join the Lothians Women in Agriculture group for an evening of dinner, discussion and connection.

After a relaxed dinner, speakers include Julie McLaren, the current vice chair of Women in Agriculture Scotland, who will describe what the organisation does including its mentoring scheme.

John Davidson, the CEO of NFUS, will share some insights into the work that the organisation does and discuss how it is aiming to increase diversity.

And finally Kate Rowell will provide an insight into her lief and work: she has run a family beef and sheep farm near Peebles for over 20 years and spent seven years as a veterinary surgeon. Kate is also Chair of QMS, sits on the Board of Moredun Research Institute, is a member of the Scottish Government’s Agricultural Reform Implementation Oversight Board and is a Commissioner on the UK Government’s Trade and Agriculture Commission.

Dinner is included so pre-booking is essential. To book please visit the FAS website.
