Working to ensure sustainable, resilient & healthy food supplies for all
AD digestate can be used as a low-cost, sustainable source of crop fertiliser and organic matter. BioVale are organising a half-day workshop on 17 June that will explore the issues and the latest developments around using AD digestate on farmland.
I am impressed by the potential embedded in the N8 partnership and look forward to helping drive this forward through working with academics, industry and practitioners across disciplines and institutions.
I started working on the N8 AgriFood Programme as a Knowledge Exchange (KE) fellow based at The University of York on 1st March 2016 and using my first week as a benchmark, it looks set to be a very varied and dynamic role!
Are you a talented and ambitious middle-year student studying at one of the N8 universities (Durham, Lancaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield and York)? Would you like to gain new work experience and boost your CV? Make sure to apply for one of the N8 AgriFood summer internships! Hurry up – the deadline is Sun 12th June 2016.
