Recenty we welcomed back Will Blake and his team from University of Plymouth where they spent the day on Alscot soil carrying out experimental work using AgroCares NIRS (Near Infrared Spectroscopy) technology.

This innovative approach allows rapid, on-site analysis of soil health and composition, helping us better understand the condition of the land and how we manage it.

Today’s work forms part of a wider collaborative project we are involved in with the University of Plymouth and a number of other stakeholders. Together, we are exploring how technologies like NIRS can be developed and applied to deliver practical tools and insights for the future of farming.

It’s really exciting for us to be part of research that bridges academia and real-world farm practice, helping to shape more informed and sustainable land management for the years ahead.
