Summary
A presenting duo for this week's Agri-TechE round-up (but one of us had to do all the talking). This week: 🗓️ Lots of named "days" and weeks, including the UNESCO Day of Women and Girls in Science, also National Nestbox Week and - crucially - Mind Your Head Week, raising awareness and support for mental health in our industry and farm safety. #MindYourHead Farm Safety Foundation (Yellow Wellies) . 🙌 Welcome to our latest new member cohort, including: 🕷️ BugBug - detection of insect pests through acoustic ID of their mode of attack on plants 🦠 Bactotech UK - using Bacillus bacteria for bio-based solutions for crop and soil improvement 🛰️ Messium - nitrogen analysis using satellite observation, for insights into the N status of crops. 🧭 Kicking-off of our Agri-Tech Meets... Series , bringing tech from other sectors into agriculture. We started with Navigation....watch this space for more. 💷 Round 6 of the ADOPT grant is open, part of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Farming Innovation Programme (and yes, it is at least 2 farmers!). And finally, a pleasure to chair the 2026 #NorfolkFarmingConference on Tuesday and it's always interesting to meet as a member of Defra's Agricultural Productivity Group - that group has lots to do! News, trends, and breakthroughs shaping the future of farming, brought to you by Agri-TechE. We are a not-for-profit, independent organisation for our members. We bring together forward-thinking farmers, researchers, technologists, and agri-businesses to foster collaboration and drive impactful solutions. https://www.agri-tech-e.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.
