Episode notes
The late great Andrew Arbuckle was a well kent name in Scottish farming.
The former Scotsman and Dundee Courier farming editor, ex MSP, author and farmer was a big supporter of RSABI, raising tens of thousands of pounds for the charity with proceeds from his books.
Sadly, Andrew passed away in December 2025.
In tribute to him, and to pay our respects, OnFARM are re-visiting a conversation that we first published in 2022.
As you'll hear in this episode, he was a real character, a true gentleman, and full of brilliant stories.
