Thank you @GrowUp_Farms for opening the doors of your Leaf Lab to our @Agri_Tech_E early-career innovators! 👩🔬🌱👨💻
We got an insight into all the R&D needed to grow leafy salads indoors, at scale.
That's a lot of experiments!

Conference season continues with the @WrittleOfficial Farmers Club Conference!
Lots of interest already from students about our early-career innovators forum.
@Agri_Tech_E #ecifcommunity #agriculture #agritech #innovation
We're ready for you at The Norfolk Farming Conference!
Come and have a chat with us about agri-tech, joining our community of innovators and how we can help you at @Agri_Tech_E
@RNAAuk #NFC24 #innovation #agriculture #agritech
Hearing from innovation in other sectors at the @CambWireless #location SIG!
There are some interesting similarities in the challenges and drivers that ports, highways and farming environments face:
Connectivity
Decarbonisation
Logistics
Collaboration
Innovation uptake
From glasshouses to the insectary, facilities at @JohnInnesCentre are supporting researchers to study how plants, bugs & insects adapt to our changing climate.
Networking in action at our early-career innovators forum event, before setting off for tours of @JohnInnesCentre glasshouses and insectary 🌾🐜🐞🌿

Inspirational visit today to The Grange as part of the 15 year collab with @BASFcropUK on #sustainability
William & Andrew are investing in their #soils, #biodiversity by collaborating with researchers and industry to increase on-farm resilience
Climate-smart farming in action!
We're loving catching up with @Agri_Tech_E members at @Groundswellaguk
There is so much innovation and novel thinking happening everywhere we go!

We had a great time at the Morley Innovation Day yesterday.
Catching up with @Agri_Tech_E members, meeting local farmers and the latest cohort of TMAF-funded PhD students working on septoria, root traits & heat stress.

Thank you @Morleyfarms for organising such an informative and relaxed day!
Such a wide array of assays, tools & techniques being developed & used in the @OilseedRachel lab to understand interactions between OSR & cabbage stem flea beetle.
These are crucial resources for the industry & the resulting insights will feed into IPM measures on-farm.
Is it time for durum to have more space in the UK wheat spotlight? 🍝🌾
@JohnInnesCentre is getting ahead of the curve and helping support the sector by screening material from the Watkins collection and introducing it into elite material.
Watch out for Norfolk pasta!
Onto the pea cage!
@JohnInnesCentre is exploring the rich genetic variation in its 3.5K germplasm collection with a specific interest for nutrient content (protein, starch, oligosaccharides) & diseases such as downy mildew.
Huge screening effort with 750 sequenced so far.
1st stop at the @JohnInnesCentre breeders day: genome editing!
From pod shedding in OSR to grain size variation in wheat & enhanced vit D in tomatoes, GE has a lot of potential.
Also important in the discussion is public awareness & working closely with regulators.
Can you use crop sensing data as a proxy for yield in veg crops 🥕🥔🥒🥦?
Turns out you can! Lots of interesting data & learnings have come out from @InnoVeg project led by @LizzieSagoo @ADASGroup
A great example of research & tech coming together to provide insight for farmers
It's been a pleasure being involved as observer partners and getting the word out about unlocking yield prediction for veg crops with remote sensing @Agri_Tech_E
Busy busy at the @Bayer4CropsUK Stand 1.20! Fieldview is Bayer's latest data capture solution for more accessible & useable insights from crop fields. Speak to the team to get a 1 year taster!
