Farm of the Future study tour - the Midlands

Event Date
RASE

Farmers are invited to join RASE and Innovation for Agriculture for a two-day Farm of the Future study tour in the Midlands.

The tour will include on-farm demonstrations, to see how forward-thinking farmers are reducing inputs, trialling new technologies, pioneering innovative food production systems and diversifying to establish alternative income streams. There will also be a visit to the University of Warwick to explore crop research, growing systems and nature friendly farming. 

All meals and overnight accommodation will be provided.

This event is free for farmers, fully funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. Places are strictly limited and priority will be given to those who have not yet attended a Farm of the Future study tour, but returning applicants are welcome and will be notified if spaces become available.
