There are some good, qualified younger people in the industry, but there are not enough. This imbalance needs to be addressed, as the older generation is potentially leaving a really young, inexperienced industry to face work that is more crucial than ever. On the other hand, some feel that attitudes towards young people in the industry in general could improve. Jasper Hubert, consultant for Koppert Biological Systems, is all too aware that young people are in the minority in the fresh produce industry and says that sometimes it is a struggle to be taken seriously. My company is fantastically supportive of me and my colleagues couldn't do any more to make me feel welcome and part of the team, but you do have to go out of your way to prove yourself to people, which I guess is beneficial in itself. You have to be very careful about the advice you give because trust is everything, but the thing people have to remember is that we are still learning and people do learn by their mistakes. I double check and triple check and sometimes you can still not get it quite right, but you have to learn somehow.
