Putting Data to Work On-farm

Putting Data to Work On-farm

We hear from Andrew Blenkiron, Managing Director of Elveden Estates. Andrew talks about how to get technology adopted on farm, making the most of the data you have, and what's been the gamechanger on farms over the past 10 years.


Elveden is a 22,500 acre country estate, of which over 10,000 acres is farmland - largest ring-fenced arable farm in lowland Britain. The farm specialises in the production of vegetables especially potatoes, onions, carrots and parsnips which dominate their farming. Around 6% of the UK’s onions are grown at Elveden! They also grow cereals such as rye, barley and wheat to balance the rotation. More rye is grown at Elveden than on any other farm in the UK.


Consistency of quality and volume is achieved through the application of the highest levels of science and technology. Irrigation, mechanisation and a highly skilled production team are key to their success. The team are passionate about environmentally-responsible farming and work hard to ensure that biodiversity at Elveden thrives alongside farming practices.


This episode forms part of our Back to the Future project, for Agri-TechE's 10th birthday celebrations.
