The Central Association of Agricultural Valuers (CAAV) is a specialist professional body representing, qualifying and briefing almost 3000 members practising in a diverse range of agricultural and rural work throughout England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. CAAV have put together the Route to Rural campaign to highlight the multitude of career paths available in the rural sector.

Agricultural Valuers have a thorough knowledge of country life, understand the relevant law, keep abreast of government regulations and have a strong sense of practicality in times when there are many new or increasing pressures on and opportunities in the countryside. At all times they act professionally and focus on adding value to their clients.

This campaign is designed to open the door to an expansive range of future career opportunities connected to farming, land use, estate and property management valuation, and utilities & infrastructure.
