    The importance of agri-tech to agriculture and food will be discussed at the South West AgriTech showcase on April 20, 2023.

    Mel Squires, South West director at the NFU, will be a keynote speaker at the event and said: “I will be reflecting on how critical agri-tech is to our farming and food supply chains, from farmgate to marketplace. Given the significance of farming to this region, both economically and environmentally, it is crucial that we continue to collaborate. We must work with researchers, practitioners and other stakeholders to enable the sector to be sustainable, productive, profitable and resilient. This is for the benefit of our communities, consumers, business owners and workers, and to help us achieve our ambitions for the environment and reaching net zero.

    “This event will shine a bright light on all the fantastic effort and work taking place in this part of the world, and beyond. It will inform, connect, inspire and, I hope, encourage people to learn more and see how agri-tech can help their own businesses, which will invite further interest and investment.”

    Other topics to be covered at the event include the future of regenerative food and farming, a national agri-tech funding update and ‘Agri-Tech – Addressing the Perception”.

    David Owen, director of Economy and Environment at Gloucestershire County Council and chief executive at GFirtst Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), said: “The council is happy to be supporting the AgriTech Showcase event. It provides an invaluable opportunity for people from across the agricultural sector to work together to create a future that benefits everyone. Supporting AgriTech will not only boost this industry but communities across Gloucestershire.”

    Joanna Rufus, chair of South West AgriTech, said there will be plenty of networking opportunities in the Market Place at the event: “The marketplace has been so popular with exhibitors we have had to increase our space offering. We’re lucky to have received such tremendous backing from those that make up South West AgriTech, the LEPs, local partners and academic partners – we have such agri-tech strength in the South West.”
