Scottish Crofting Federation

Established and run by crofters, SCF engages with agencies and government at a local, national, and international level to influence policy on rural issues including sustaining rural populations, food production, and environmental protection.

[1] Only those businesses that qualify and are members of the Scottish Crofting Federation may place the mark on their products.

The federation states on its website that it plans to enforce product quality, cleanliness, and traceability, as well as ensure animals are healthy and reasonably treated.

Much of the UK's High Nature Value[clarification needed] farming is found in the crofting areas.

[4][5] The SCF is currently involved in activities to encourage the UK government to recognize crofters as indigenous people of Scotland.
