George Sly’s passion for agronomy and his ongoing campaign to promote better soil health through regenerative farming principals, has led him on a journey of discovery and was ultimately the driving force behind him starting his own business in 2006. Sly Agri was built on historical family ties with agricultural equipment and engineering practices. The 300 hectare Sly family farm (in Lincolnshire), is at the heart of the company’s activities, providing the opportunity to conduct vital in-field research, the results of which inform and contribute to the product development process. In 2019 Sly Agri was rebranded as Horizon Agricultural Machinery Ltd, the focus of which, has been the production of innovative agricultural machinery that facilitates regenerative and conservation-friendly farming.
