Business students take on innovation challenge

Last week, our first-year Business students took on an exciting innovation challenge after visiting the Harper Adams Future Farm, Vineyard, and Apiary in their first term.

Agribusiness students explored the potential of supplying agricultural commodities to B2B markets, while Food Business students got creative, developing value-added products for consumer markets.

Meanwhile, Business students explored the untapped potential of hive by-products, discovering new opportunities for non-food product development.

Using our Future Farm sausages, Harper Honey and eggs from the Harper Adams Community Fridge, our foodies created two versions of a honey-glazed pigs in blankets quiche - Honey & Mustard and Hot Honey.
