Durham University has received €3.5 million via the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions for two projects: FARMAR and NEWBEE. FARMAR, with a budget of €1.79 million, aims to preserve on-farm knowledge by integrating AI and robotics with cultural research.

NEWBEE, receiving €1.77 million, will develop low-cost camera systems for monitoring wild bee populations, addressing declines due to habitat loss and climate change. Both projects involve international collaboration and aim to enhance agricultural practices and ecological health, with partnerships across various countries.
