Many of these one-off innovations have wide application in the industry. The purpose of the magazine is to disseminate these ideas so that all farmers can learn about them and benefit.〔Richard Swift.

The magazine supports farming events run by the National Federation of Young Farmers Clubs such as their 2012 challenge on how to enhance the farmed environment. The publication contributed to Tomorrow, Today] - a major exhibition featuring farm innovation at the (Welsh Show ) 2013 The Agri-Web Award scheme is a valued accolade for farmers, companies and organisations whose website and internet presence is of importance to the farming community.
