About the programme

Our Innovation Farms bring together the best scientific minds and farming visionaries to investigate specific technology and on farm innovations. The programme has up to 8 farmers involved at any one time and their involvement tends to last around 3 years.

The farms focus on developing new knowledge and on delivering results that can be picked up by early adopters and high-performing farmers.

Innovation farm projects are likely to be technical in nature and involve unproven or new-to-market technologies. The tend to look at a narrow category of farming activity, rather than taking a whole-farm approach.
