STFA PAYS TRIBUTE TO JOE WATSON

STFA MOURNS THE LOSS OF JOE WATSON

 The Scottish Tenant Farmers Association joins the whole agricultural industry in mourning the loss of Joe Watson, award winning farming editor of the Press and Journal who sadly passed away yesterday.

STFA Director Angus McCall said; “I have known Joe since he became editor for the P & J and have always had a huge respect for his honesty, integrity and tenacity as an agricultural journalist.   He was never frightened to ask those difficult questions and relentless in pursuit of an answer.  Big Joe will be sorely missed amongst not only the agricultural community in the North, but all over Scotland.  Our sympathy lies with his family and close friends at this difficult time.”
