  • Summary

  • In this Digging Deep episode, Kit and Ray discuss non-chemical crop protection, from what farmers did before agrochemicals to the way in which agrochemicals proliferated into agriculture during the ‘Green revolution’ and how consumers are starting to put pressure on farmers to move away from agrochemicals. Kit and Ray explore some of the challenges and opportunities that agricultural engineers and technologists are being faced with to help farmers cut down their chemical inputs and the different technologies that are making it all possible.
