In-Orbit

In this episode, we will be discussing the Agri-Living Lab and how collaboration between agriculture and space technology promises to improve the sustainability and efficiency of farming.

Show Notes

It’s estimated the world will need to feed 10 billion people before the end of the century. Yet at the same time, we are faced with a climate crisis that requires the urgent protection of our natural resources. 

To meet these challenges, we need to focus on getting the most out of what we already have. We need more efficient farming methods that are kinder to the environment. We need sustainable, nature focused solutions. We need innovation.

So, how do we even begin? And how can satellites help?

We're joined by Calum Kelly from the Satellite Applications Catapult, Parmjit Chima from Harper Adams University, and Digby Sowerby from Wessex Internet.
