Fifty successful innovative projects have been announced from four key competitions in the latest Farming Innovation Programme milestones.
Following the completion of four substantial competitions under the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs’ (Defra) Farming Innovation Programme, 50 projects have secured valuable funding.
This will allow them to advance their innovations that aim to address some of the key issues facing the farmers and growers in England.
The competitions, which were again delivered by Innovate UK’s Transforming Food Production challenge, covered a range of important innovation areas, including climate-focused solutions, farming technology and smaller research and development (R&D) concepts still at their early stages.
