## Resource

Ending our week at Agri-TechE with a spot of pond-dipping – and reflecting on why we need technology to monitor and manage Nature at scale. Measuring pollination, soil health, water quality, species diversity…..and how to make the return on investment, we’ll be discussing all this and more at our event on 28th April hosted by Rothamsted. No wellies or test tubes needed – and certainly no magnifying lenses, but we will be hearing from major UK farming businesses and landowners as to how they are tackling this. Also processors, supply chain partners and networks, as well as a technology exhibition, and meet our sponsors, ADAS, Fenland Soil and Rothamsted Enterprises. Also next week – come and learn about the secret sauce for agritech and how to protect it, with IP21, the next in our micro-learning series over the summer where we’ll be from the legal experts in our network about how the legal world is changing for agriculture with the advent of technology. 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.
