Best in Field is back for Season 3 with a new host and fresh conversations about the people and ideas shaping agriculture.

In this opening episode, Rupert welcomes Belinda Clarke, Director of Agri-TechE, to explore the innovations driving the sector forward. From AI and robotics to data integration and farmer collaboration, Belinda shares her perspective on what really matters in agri-tech, and what it takes to make innovation work on-farm.

She also dives into global lessons from the Netherlands to Singapore, the challenges of farmer adoption, and why the unglamorous work of data unification might just be the biggest game-changer of all.

Whether you’re a farmer, agronomist, or tech developer, this is the perfect place to start a new season of insights and inspiration.
