Background

History

The Crop Science Centre development plans began in 2015, between the University of Cambridge's Department of Plant Sciences, National Institute of Agricultural Botany and the Sainsbury Laboratory. The research institute received £16.9m funding in 2017 from the UK Research Partnership Investment Fund from Research England (United Kingdom Research and Innovation) to build a new state-of-the-art building, designed exclusively for crop research, which opened on 1 October 2020.
