John Robertson Allan (4 September 1906 – 24 October 1986) was a Scottish journalist, broadcaster, author, and farmer. He is known for his books about agricultural life in Scotland such as the semi-autobiographical Farmer's Boy (1935) and the posthumously published novel Green Heritage about the traditions and challenges of tenant farming in the north-east of Scotland. He also wrote a number of non-fiction works on topographical subjects and country life such as The Lowlands of Scotland (1951) for the Festival of Britain's About Britain series.
