News from YAGRO and information, insight and commentary on agtech and farming.
We are delighted to have won funding from UK Research and Innovation for a collaborative project with Outfield Technologies. Through Project Crystal Ball: Predict and Preserve Profitability of Orchards, we want to make our platform more relevant to top-fruit growers, further develop our crop quality models and take the first step into the exciting world of scenario planning.
The world of Agriculture is fascinating, complex, opinionated, fast moving. For decades there has been an ambition that data and computing power can help the industry keep improving. As farmers we have been strongly encouraged to record, record and record data. So where do we stand today? Are these benefits happening?
With the explosion of technology on farm, data ownership has become a critical topic for UK agriculture. Our industry is maturing away from single software solutions, towards an inter-connected, intelligent network where farmers can unlock incredible value by sharing data. To safeguard this value to farmers, data ownership becomes dramatically more important – and complex. We want to lead the industry on data rights just as we do on technology and have thus updated our terms – to maintain our role as UK farming’s trusted innovators in data.

In 2015 we set out to build a company that would change the way data and information was used in farming; that would genuinely add value to a farmer’s business; and that would help the next generation of farmers apply their skills and manage their farms with full confidence. Today we are excited to share that we are supercharging our ability to deliver that vision.
We have launched our new Partnership Programme! Putting YAGRO’s ground-breaking Analytics tools into the hands of your on-farm advisors.
