Meet the CAFRE staff who mentor the ABP Angus Youth Challenge finalists

Currently four school teams are competing in the final stage of the 2023 ABP Angus Youth Challenge. Each team has been paired with a College of Agriculture, Food & Rural Enterprise (CAFRE) Adviser or Lecturer. Their role is to mentor their team as they rear five Angus Cross calves from six months through to finish at approximately 18 months. The mentor will also provide technical advice and support to help the team address their project theme.
