INNOVATIONS Knowledge Transfer Hub Muddy Machines: With a shortage of labour within the agriculture sector will the move to automation and deep learning revolutionise the industry. Winners of numerous agri-Innovate awards are ‘Muddy Machines’ a sustainable and viable alternative for the UK agricultural sector. Muddy Machines | Farm Automation ​ Stenon (Farm Lab): Sending soil samples to the laboratories might be a thing of the past. Stenon’s portable multiple sensor device allows you to analyse your soil and receive immediate results. The system uploads the raw data directly to Stenon’s cloud system which transfers this to soil parameters. According to Stenon the system is comparable to standard soil testing and can provide a range of nutrients from N,P &K and Soil Organic Carbon. The system also obtains general parameters such as soil moisture, temperature, type, texture and pH. For more information contact: FarmLab - Stenon ​ The Global Farm Metric: With the current focus towards going Net Zero and to reduce carbon there is a concern that the pursuit of a single outcome can come at a cost to other parts of the system. The Global Farm Metric uses a set of categories, indicators and measures to assess the whole-farm sustainability. The Global Farm Metric (GFM) focuses on 11 key categories from Biodiversity, Soil, Water, Air & Climate etc The GFM hopes that “by providing a whole-farm framework to understand, monitor and reduce impacts, farmers can evidence and improve the production of nutritious food, growth of natural capital and delivery of public goods”. “This data can be used to support consistent sourcing and investment by the financial industry and food businesses, as well as establish a baseline of data to inform direct payment schemes”. The aim is to create a common framework with the idea of achieving a Net Zero in a way that also delivers benefits to biodiversity, our water systems, human health, rural communities, and more.

This changes the need for standard fertilisation system and aims to improve soil health and fertility through the addition of carbon. BIO-F also complies to organic standards. BIO-F is a new technology company that is looking to carry out plot and field trials with full commercialisation planned within the next 2 years. Could BIO-F help your company in reducing its artificial inputs. For further information on BIO-F and its products please see the link below. Home | Bio-F Solutions (biofsolutions.com) ​ Agri sound: Are you interested in understanding your biodiversity within the field, Agri Sound have created portable in field sensors that assist in tracking pollinator numbers. The system collects data and interprets the level of pollinator activity via acoustic detection methods the system can also identify areas of low pollinator activity interventions can then be assigned to increase the numbers. Could you use the system to provide evidence to the new farming subsidy schemes? Pollination | AgriSound | United Kingdom ​ CONNECT WITH US Email - contactus@newleafhub.co.uk ​ New Leaf Hub Ltd.
