A good couple of days at #Groundswell2024. I think it mostly points in the direction where agriculture is going. Big thanks to Agriculture Universities Council for the platform and generosity.

Our Warwick Agri-Tech team had a busy time at CropTec networking with growers, tech innovators, and funders. Plenty of discussions around Warwick Agri-Tech's latest developments. We're grateful to the connections made and excited for future collaborations! #AgriTech #Innovation
Prof Gideon Henderson visited Warwick's Wellesbourne campus yesterday. Highlights were British beans and listening to worms. I wonder what they told him? @DefraChiefScien @WarwickLifeSci

At #GreenSurg23 today at Birmingham University. Excellent morning discussions and seriously impressed by the amount and range of posters. Looking forward to this afternoon.
Can you help in our research? Do you live in the UK and have children between 2 and 12 following a veggie or vegan diet? Can you contribute to the healthiness of these diets by completing a 3 day food diary for your child? Contact @AliceCoffey19 for details.
A pleasure to welcome Defra colleagues to Warwick's Wellesbourne campus. Prof. Eric Holub explains research within CHAP's Natural Light Growing Centre. @WarwickCrop
