Bridging the gap between agri-innovation and real-world application, we support farmers and agri-business to address the challenges of modern agriculture.
We collaborate closely with farmers and organisations within the agricultural sector to ensure new technologies and systems are developed with and for farmers: fit for purpose, fully tested with demonstrable return on investment.
Through farm open days, workshops and other activities, we facilitate a wealth of knowledge exchange opportunities. We share insights and best practices across the agricultural community to ensure novel agri-tech meets optimal user design, practicality and functionality.
Our discovery days and project events provide an invaluable opportunity to see technology in action and explore how current sector challenges can be addressed, building trust in technology and its successful commercial farm adoption.
We provide a vital connection between innovative agri-tech research and the realities of working farm operations. We foster cross-sector engagement to fully understand the challenges, co-create solutions and demonstrate innovations in commercially relevant settings. Our partnerships ensure that new technology is not just theoretical but delivers tangible and economically positive benefits on the ground.
We offer organisations a platform to develop and showcase products in real-world settings. Our UK-wide farm network means we can support the testing of technology on active farms to help businesses refine products and demonstrate proof of concept to farmers, researchers, engineers, government and agri-tech companies.
Working with researchers and innovators, we collect and share valuable real-world data from a diverse network of farms, helping stakeholders address critical questions, from improving productivity to advancing sustainability. By providing access to insights from technology trials, operational metrics and environmental monitoring, we are helping to ensure that researchers and innovators have the resources they need to develop effective solutions. Our collaboration with research institutions, environmental organisations and policymakers informs both practical advances and science-based decision-making across the agricultural sector.
We are building and connecting a world-class hub of farmers and agri-business, agri-tech experts and R&D capabilities to tackle the issues that not one part of the sector can address alone. We welcome all enquiries, so please get in touch.
We’re focused on all areas of crops, livestock and engineering and exploring new sectors within food, feed, fuel and fibres.
Join a diverse community from industry and science, committed to transforming UK food and farming. Doing better for businesses, the future of the agri-food sector and the planet.
We welcome all enquiries, fill in the form and we’ll be in touch.
