The Scottish Crofting Federation has urged Scotland's Agriculture Jim Fairlie to make changes to the Whole Farm Plan which are 'proportionate' to the needs of crofters

"The report clearly shows that crofting not only delivers economically, but also for the environment, land management, community, health and for culture"

Jonathan Hedges, chair of the campaigning group, said each farmer brought a wealth of experience and expertise to the table, while covering wide geographical areas in Scotland
