The REAP Conference 2026, 4 November
With the Government setting out an ambitious plan for horticulture and putting robotics firmly on the agricultural agenda, the direction of travel is clear: technology has a growing role to play in the future of farming. At REAP 2026, we’ll explore that journey from every angle - science, technology, farming, supply chain and more.
