Future Foresters Technology Day 2017
Thanks to the support of Sorbus International, Haglof International & Stihl the RFS ran the first conference and exhibition day for forestry, arboriculture and countryside students and recent graduates in the UK.
250 delegates descended on Moulton College, Northants from 11 educational institutions. In addition, there was a substantial number of young professionals and recent graduates in attendance.
Focusing on future technology, this event gave delegates a taste of professional CPD events and the opportunity to get hands-on with some of the latest kit in live demonstrations.
