Get support to integrate AI into your operations
13 August 2025Farmers and crofters across Scotland are increasingly exploring the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance their agricultural businesses. From streamlining operations to improving decision-making, AI offers a range of tools that can help boost productivity, reduce waste, and adapt to changing environmental conditions. As the sector faces growing pressures – from climate change to market volatility – AI presents an opportunity to innovate and build more resilient, data-driven farming practices.
You can receive support from the Innovate UK BridgeAI training programme, which is tailored to the agri-food sector to teach you how these powerful technologies can boost sustainability, increase efficiency, and drive profitability across agricultural operations. Join one of their free full-day workshops, which include expert-led sessions, hands-on demos, CPD certification, and lunch.
Alongside this support, you can also receive up to £3,200 of funding through the Farm Advisory Service for two areas of advice, including business efficiency and resilience planning.
