It will mark the end of a season of events run by Farm491, the AgriTech hub at the Royal Agricul-tural University, throughout February, March and April.
Commercial tech showcases, industry debates and on-farm demonstrations will all form part of the two-day event which will explore the potential of technology such as robotics in the sector.
