Land manager
The Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 refers to owners and occupiers, and these include landowners, farmers, crofters, tenants, foresters and fishery owners. In some circumstances, this may include those acting for owners or occupiers where these other parties have possession of the land (for example, land agents and contractors). Many public bodies (see below) and voluntary bodies, such as the National Trust for Scotland, Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and the John Muir Trust, are also owners and occupiers of land. The term “land manager” is used to cover all of these types of owner and occupier.
