Visiting farmer says the industry needs the enthusiasm and energy of young farmers
A farmer who's been visiting the Island says it's sad to see young farmers being advised to seek work in other areas.
Rhys Williams, who runs a farm in Wales, has been discussing succession planning and navigating family transitions with Manx farmers.
It's part of a series of events run by the agriculture department looking at challenges facing the sector.
He told Manx Radio's Kirree Kermode there are opportunities for younger generations in the industry:
Parliament Street closed to vehicles due to suspected gas leak
Swiss Chalet in Glen Helen set to get new lease of life as farm shop
Ministers to face questions over Minimum Wage rise and VAT
