THE opportunity to try new things, visit different places and meet new people is without doubt the best part of my job - and in the past month I have been fortunate enough to experience all three.
Sometimes when we get farmers visiting Kirkton and Auchtertyre, they can be a bit reserved and are not always willing to be involved in discussions, but one subject which always starts a lively debate is which breed or breeds are best suited to each situation.
