SRUC - Scotland’s Rural College

SAC (The Scottish Agricultural College) is an innovative, knowledge-based organisation, supporting the development of land-based industries and communities through our

specialist research and development resources

expert advisory and consultancy services

Our work is wide ranging but there is a particular emphasis on agriculture and related sciences, rural business development and management, food chain quality and safety, and rural resource and environmental management.

Through our associate company, SAC Commercial Ltd, we can provide a wide range of services to individuals, small and medium size enterprises, corporate clients, local and regional authorities, and government agencies and departments.

Certain of our services in Scotland are assisted by the Scottish Government through its Grant-in-aid programme as part of the national provision for research and rural advisory services.
