Description

This week's The Orcadian features a great piece on new trials being led by UHI Orkney Agriculture & Argronomy Institute — including tower farms and cover crops 🌿. Dr. Henry Creissen, the new Director, is keen to hear from local farmers about how research can help tackle the real challenges they face.
From innovative ways to grow crops like bere barley to improving soils and feeding livestock with cover crops, it's all about farming smarter, not harder.
