Land based Industries Sample Clauses

Land based Industries. The Principal and Senior Managers have met with Senior Staff from SRUC and Xxxxxx to discuss collaboration, articulation and partnership working, particularly relating to agriculture, forestry and animal care. Early discussions have taken place regarding a ‘Skills for Agriculture’ course, which would provide a pre-apprenticeship route for young people at SCQF Level 4. The number of apprenticeships for agriculture and game keeping have grown with a subsequent reduction in full time enrolments in these areas during 2018-19. This is to meet the immediate skills shortages within the land-based industries and this trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, with SRUC we are seeking to establish a route for progression to Veterinary Nursing from HNC/D Animal Management. There have been early discussions with SRUC around creation of a rural centre of excellence, to be situated in Newtown St Boswells, which will require capital investment if it is to progress. The College is investigating new provision for school pupils in the area of forestry, which may lead to progression to SRUC, and is tasked with ensuring that agricultural education in Scotland is fit for the future. General discussion has been around guidance for farmers on employing an apprentice and sharing good practice across the sector. There is interest in supporting microbusinesses through shared apprenticeships, with a possibility of moving this forward with co-ordination / employment hubs.

Land based Industries. As Växjö's emissions of carbon dioxide have fallen sharply, emissions of other greenhouse gases account for an increasing share of Växjö's greenhouse gases. In 2020, it was 40%, mainly methane and nitrous oxide. Two thirds of this is linked to the land use and livestock farming of the agricultural sector. We therefore need to develop solutions to address these emissions in cooperation with different players. Future strategies and measures linked to carbon sinks are also covered in this section.
