Harper Adams Univeristy

Harper Adams University is the UK’s leading specialist institution for agri-food, land-based business, and rural enterprise. Based in Newport, Shropshire, we combine world-class teaching, cutting-edge research, and strong industry links to address the challenges of feeding a growing global population sustainably.

Our work spans agriculture, food production, animal health, land management, engineering, and rural business. Recent investment has also seen the development of research and teaching facilities in viticulture and oenology, supporting the growth of the UK’s cool-climate wine sector.

Through events such as the Open Grape Harvest Day, we aim to connect students, researchers, producers, and the wider community, celebrating innovation while showcasing the richness of British food and farming.
