The South West Dairy Development Centre, UK AgriTech Centre’s dairy farm of the future, is located in Somerset. The South West is an important milk producing region, home to nearly 25% of dairy cows in Great Britain.
The farm provides a platform to test and demonstrate new and emerging technologies. UK AgriTech Centre commissioned one of their core industrial partners – independent dairy specialist Kingshay – to design, build and operate a state-of-the-art dairy for research and development, with funding from Innovate UK and industry partners.
