Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) is seeking applications from aspiring and developing farmers for a new agricultural opportunity at Glenprosen in the Angus Glens. The 70-hectare grazing tenancy forms part of FLS's and the Scottish Government’s commitment to supporting young farmers and those new to the industry by increasing access to publicly owned land. In response to this commitment, during 2025-26, FLS offered and leased 17 sites, totalling 325 hectares, to new and recent entrants to farming, with holdings ranging from just over one hectare to 53 hectares. FLS is currently assessing potential farming opportunities on land it manages and plans to bring identified sites forward early in 2027. The initial five-year tenancy at Glenprosen includes grazing land and agricultural buildings and offers a unique opportunity to combine livestock farming with nature restoration and biodiversity enhancement. The new tenant will work alongside an established conservation grazing operation, contributing to habitat restoration across Glenprosen.
