About Us

We're connecting researchers, farmers, and industry leaders.

What we do

Our vision is to provide an open innovation platform enabling researchers to work with:

  • farmers
  • industry
  • environmental stakeholders
  • government stakeholders

We bring together commercial, research and teaching objectives to support this vision.

Research and innovation

Newcastle University Farms drive and support evidence-based innovation in:

  • resilient and regenerative farming

This is led by our commercial and academic strategies.
