Michael Gove has met with the Scottish farming and fishing leaders to discuss the future of the farming and fishing industries outside the EU.
Representatives from across the Scottish farming and fish processing sectors attended the meetings with the Secretary of State.
The meetings focused on the opportunities and challenges facing Scottish farmers and fishing businesses as the UK prepares to leave the EU.
The meetings also focused on how Scotland’s entrepreneurial farmers and fisherman can make the best use of innovation and new technology to boost productivity.
Michael Gove, Environment Secretary, said: “Aberdeen is a city extremely close to my heart and one with proud traditions in both farming and fishing. Both industries are part of the fabric of daily life for so many people in the North East, but they are also vitally important for the local and national economies, together contributing over £10 billion. I’m determined to see them go from strength to strength outside the EU.
“Today’s discussions were very productive and helpful as we take forward this once in a lifetime opportunity to design a new approach that can deliver a brighter future for Scottish farmers and fishermen.
“There are undoubtedly challenges ahead, but if we work together I believe there can be great rewards. I’m committed to working with the Scottish farming and fishing industries to make sure we secure a smooth transition and grasp the opportunities that leaving the EU presents.”
