Agri-tech Centres
Agrimetrics is one of the four UK Agri-Tech Centres which work to support a successful and sustainable agri-food sector.
Agri-Tech Centres: Inspiring Innovation
The Agri-Tech Centres are a unique collaboration between Government, academia and industry to drive greater efficiency, resilience and wealth across the agrifood sector. A £90m investment from the UK’s strategic innovation agency (Innovate UK) is enabling the Centres to harness leading UK research and expertise as well as build new infrastructures and innovation.
The Centres are essential catalysts for change. They provide a gateway for business to access the best scientific expertise – stimulating new research, practice and technology for the agrifood sector. Each Centre has its own unique focus; building capabilities that can lead the world in delivering sustainable food and farming solutions.
