Young farmers try to drum up support for industry at GYS
Youtube and TikTok stars are amongst those at the event in Harrogate
North Yorkshire farmers say it's "bonkers" that schools aren't teaching pupils more about the agricultural industry.
How to get young people interested in the sector has been one of the hot topics at the Great Yorkshire show this week.
Some argue it should be added to the syllabus.
Will Roobottom makes Youtube videos about life on his farm in the hopes it'll inspire other young people: "Doing little things like sheep shearing for the young people, getting them into agriculture, showing them the technology too, it's very different now than it was 10 years ago."
"Part of the reason I started my YouTube channel was to try and get the next generation into farming I thin there is definitely an age gap, so my Dad is in his 50s, I feel like there is an age gap there between 35 and 45 where this is 10 years, round about when foot and mouth hit, where a lot of farmers did drop out."
"I actually went out of farming, and it was actually getting involved in the farming again after I'd finished school and just saw the enjoyment of getting hands on, it's one of those industry's that is so rewarding for the work you do."
Many North Yorkshire farmers say they are worried that young people aren't interested.
Another option being discussed at the Great Yorkshire show is for it to be put onto the school curriculum.
The MP for Whitby and Scarborough Sir Robert Goodwill has a farm. Speaking at the show he told us: "Particularly when you go into some of the inner cities, it's how little young children and teenagers know about how their food is produced, where it comes from and more worringly how to produce simple, inexpensive meals in their own kitchen. There's a real call I think to improve the way that young people learn about agriculture and learn about where their food comes from.
"I think when you talk to teachers they already say that the national curriculum is very crowded and maybe one way we could move forward is having a GCSE in agriculture and agriculture-related topics, so you can study that as one of your options at 16 and maybe go on to do an A-Level in that subject."
