Young Farmers in England refers to the National Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs (NFYFC), which is an organisation dedicated to supporting young people in rural areas. NFYFC provides opportunities for personal development, social interaction, and skill-building through a network of local Young Farmers' Clubs (YFCs) across England. These clubs offer a wide range of activities, including agricultural competitions, public speaking events, community projects, and social gatherings.
