Event Date
Future Farms

From on-farm production of your own biological inputs, to raise-your-own insects, and controlled environment crop facilities for niche and alternative crops, could farms – or farming clusters – become a new cohort of mini-manufacturers?

Farm diversification isn’t just about glamping or farm shops - what if your next revenue stream came from an agri-tech mini-business?

 

  • Could an old poultry shed become an insect farm?
  • Could you make your own biological inputs instead of buying them?
  • Could a modular growing system bring high-value crops into your farm shop?

 

Whether you’re looking to create new revenue streams or support clients and landowners in doing so, this session will introduce some exciting, practical ideas that could shape the future of farming.
