Live Farmer joins British Growers Partnership Scheme

Farm management software company Live Farmer is the latest organisation to join the British Growers Partnership Scheme. 

The scheme, which is open to organisations from legal, agri-tech, finance and food redistribution sectors, is designed as a framework to share practical knowledge, provide expert insight and support members through a range of collaborative activities over the coming year.

Live Farmer is a digital platform designed to help fresh produce growers digitise their operations by gathering farm data, simplifying access to labour and machine management and tracking harvests. 

Hoping to address the most significant challenges facing the horticulture sector, the partnership is expected to include seasonal guidance, digital resources, webinars and practical content focused on all aspects of farm data, reporting and AI tools. The aim is to help growers make informed decisions throughout the farming calendar.

The development follows the scheme’s announcement that law firm Shakespeare Martineau would be the first organisation to join the partnership. 

Lisa Stannard, head of partnerships and administration at the British Growers Association, said: “Our partnership scheme is about creating meaningful collaborations that deliver real value for our members.

“Live Farmer shares our commitment to supporting UK growers with practical, innovative solutions, and we’re delighted to welcome them as a partner. Together, we’ll be providing insights, expertise and resources that help businesses operate more efficiently and prepare for the future.”

Steve Bradstock, director at Live Farmer, added: “People, land, crops, stock, machines, costs, yields, traceability, production, training sales and forecasting are all available within the cloud software.

”We look forward to working closely with growers over the coming years, sharing knowledge and demonstrating how digital solutions and AI can help improve efficiency, compliance and farm planning.”
