Building on pioneering collaborations between farmers and researchers, this April Defra launched the ADOPT fund supporting farmer-led trials at scale. It features an innovation support Hub and more accessible funding so farmers can get in the driving seat and tackle the real challenges that affect their businesses. This session by the Agricultural Universities Council in collaboration with the Farmer-Led Innovation Network will hear from funders and farmers on why this is such a monumental shift in how on-farm research is valued, and how it could support Groundswell farmers on their regen journeys.
