Hartpury Digital Innovation Farm announces ‘Farm Forward’ initiative and showcase series

Hartpury University and Hartpury College are excited to announce a new series of ‘Farm Forward’ demonstration events, showcasing the latest wireless networks and technologies for the farming and rural sectors.

Supported by the River Severn Partnership Advanced Wireless Innovation Region (RSPAWIR) project, these six demo events offer stakeholders working in the land-based industries a hands-on opportunity to explore cutting-edge technologies that can transform rural industries. From improving farm efficiency to supporting sustainability, each event will shine a light on the power of advanced wireless solutions, and the benefits they can bring to the here and now.

Taking place at Hartpury University and College’s commercial farm near Gloucester, each demo event will give attendees the chance to see and hear solutions related to industry wide themes of knowing your networks, health and safety, soils and environment, remote communication and precision farming. Attendees will get up close with sensors, latest software, vision-based tech and various network options - all tailored to real-world farming and business needs.

By closing the knowledge gap in advanced tech, and hearing about what the latest networks can offer, these six events will show how farms and rural businesses can boost productivity, sustainability and resilience.
