James Lane
I joined Farmers Guardian at the start of November 2009, and I have loved every minute of the job so far! My background is farming, although growing up on a glasshouse nursery the tractors were not quite up there with those on farms today. I have a degree in agricultural engineering gained from Writtle College, and have worked in both dealer and manufacturer sales roles, PR and as a freelance journalist before joining FG.
