The Young Farmers Club's movement is part of a worldwide network of youth groups located in rural areas variously known as young farmers, future farmers or 4H.  Each has a common cause to encourage and support young people as they mostly pursue or continue careers in agriculture and its related fields. Local clubs are linked to county federations and a national body which creates a variety of spheres for it's members to interact with others of similar interests. Those involved are passionate about and committed to creating prosperous futures in rural industry and the vision is to create a rural sector that has a reputation for providing exciting and rewarding career paths for young people who are both highly skilled and motivated. The YFC's first became established in West Wales about 1930 and Pembrokeshire is believed to have set up more than 30 village clubs in the following 20 years. Today, young people are much more mobile and the number of clubs has reduced although, in England and Wales, there are some 700 clubs with more than 20,000 members in total. The highlight of the year comes at the end of the winter programme as each county has it's annual rally - an Open Day for family and friends with a full programme of practical and fun events and competitions. There was excellent support again for the 62nd Pembrokeshire Rally held at the County Agricultural Showground, near Haverfordwest, on Saturday, attended by farmers leaders, county council officials and civic dignitaries. In an encouraging address, Mrs. Mair Evans, Federation president, remarked that many young members would be taking part in competitions at this level for the first time. "It is a very worthwhile experience; there will be no losers but not all will be awarded trophies!" she said. For their hard work and commitment, Federation chairman Edward Hartt, of Clynderwen, thanked not only the members, but the countless parents, leaders and helpers, who had put in so much time and effort to ensure the continued success of a memorable day for everyone. County organiser, Mrs. Dill Williams, commented that there was evidence that the training given in preparation for the rally ensured that the members benefited fully from learning new skills and crafts.
