YOUNG people in Dorset aged between 18 and 25 are being invited to take on farming’s toughest challenge to win £10,000.

If your dream job involves wearing wellies to work every day, Farmers Weekly’s Farmer’s Apprentice, sponsored by McDonald’s, could be your lucky break.

There is £10,000 up for grabs for one lucky young farming wannabe to help kick-start a career in agriculture.

Applicants need to come up with a 60-second video showing what makes them ‘stand out from the herd’.

Ten ‘apprentices’ will be chosen to fight it out at a bootcamp in October and will have to prove they have got skills to be a successful farmer.
