Come and visit Glastonbury Nut Farm for an open day and live demonstration of the AMB Rousset X15 Harvester, supported by Innovate UK ADOPT.
The Organic Research Centre is collaborating on trials led by the Glastonbury Nut Farm to evaluate the economic and practical viability of growing and mechanically harvesting tree nuts such as walnuts and hazelnuts under UK conditions.
Laurie Kent of Glastonbury Nut Farm who leads the project said: “We will complete our trial nut harvest in September and give a presentation of the findings and our thoughts on if this method of mechanised nut collection has got potential for wider adoption in the UK.”
The day will also act as a networking event for other ADOPT projects.
Drinks and snacks provided.
