The Society of Agriculture has already given back to its Affiliated Groups through its annual rebate scheme, supporting activity across regional, sector and specialist interest areas.
The rebate scheme returns a proportion of membership subscription income to recognised Affiliated Groups, based on Members registered to each Group. This helps ensure that membership income directly supports activity at Affiliated Group level, enabling Affiliated Groups to deliver events, encourage engagement and promote professional standards across agriculture and related rural industries.
Affiliated Groups are an important part of how the Society of Agriculture connects with Members and the wider industry. They provide opportunities for people to meet, share knowledge, discuss professional issues and build networks around either a geographical area or a shared sector interest.
