Up to £15 million of grant funding is available through the Transforming Food Production Science and Technology into Practice programme. We are running 2 strands through this competition:
- feasibility study projects (this competition): we expect to spend £5 million
- demonstration projects: we expect to spend £10 million
It is your responsibility to make sure you are applying for the correct strand.
Your feasibility study must:
- evaluate the early stage feasibility of precision solutions to transform food production
- work with end users, such as farmers and producers
- evaluate, in practice, the potential of early stage ideas that address industry identified problems
- consider both the technical feasibility and the feasibility of the business model
- consider the route to adoption
- enable decisions to be made on the future development of the solution
Your solution must:
- have the potential to improve productivity and sustainability
- contribute to the target of net zero emissions from agriculture by 2040
The competition closes at midday 12pm UK time on the deadline
