Collacombe is an in-hand farming estate in Devon. Guy Kirkwood and his family manage a diversified operation prioritising arable crops, biodiversity, renewable energy, and soil regeneration.
After retiring from tech, Guy completed a post-graduate course at the Royal Agricultural University (RAU), focusing on agritech and innovation.
Guy reviews TerraMap, a soil scanning tech that takes 355 data points per acre. It’s an in-depth look at how precision agriculture can help farms to become more efficient.

Sustainability isn't just about the soil; it's about renewable energy. Collacombe uses biomass and solar on the roofs of its sheds to become more resilient.
