    Host farmer Adrian Ivory, who manages Strathisla Farms' pedigree and commercial beef enterprises, said he was pleased to be welcoming the industry to Islabank, "We're delighted to be hosting the Scottish Beef Event here at Strathisla. My aim with any farm visit is that people go home with at least one idea they can take away and use, something that might improve their system or even just give them something new to try."
