Croft and Small Farms Subscription

Benefit from access to our independent, impartial and professional advisors, providing peace of mind, reassurance and advice tailored to smaller holdings and crofting areas.

If you are a crofter or have a small holding of less than 30 hectares, then you can receive advice from SAC Consulting’s specialist advisors on livestock, crops, grassland, woodland, environment, organic farming, grants, crofting regulations and more.

Our advisors have extensive experience and are based in our 23 offices across Scotland, meaning they are close at hand and understand local conditions. They can help you start up a new business, grow your existing enterprises or fine-tune an established business.
