My Farm is a social networking project in which members (who pay £30) work together (online, not actually working together) to decide how the farm should be managed. Decisions are made about what is planted in what locations, what livestock should be raised, etc., etc.

The web site keeps up-to-date information about what is going on and the progress of crops and livestock. There is even a webcam so you can see what is going on real-time. For educational purposes, I think it’s great. As far as changing the way farming is done in the future…

I really don’t think so.
