Crop Advisors

Congratulations to @Crop_Advisors for 25 years of excellent service to farmers, and thank you for the oak tree - planted today!

And that’s a wrap! Enlightening couple of days with a wide range of speakers 🌱 🌎 Great to get the whole team together!

“Overwhelmed” is the word of the day so far at Day 1 of the the Crop Advisors Agronomy Conference … discussing BNGs, carbon credits, net zero and AI - not a fungicide dose response curve in sight!!

Agronomy experience day in full swing with some ag students from @UniofReading @AICC1981 ☀️ 🌱

And that’s the last of our cover crop trials drilled! We have 3 trial sites in conjunction with @BostonSeeds @GreenFarmSeeds @Kingscrops , to look at a range of species & mixes. Excited to see how they establish and progress through the winter 🌱🌾

Fascinating to hear Alan Dewar sharing his wisdom on BYDV- a hot topic of the season! Followed by @KWSUKLtd and @ragtseedsuk presenting their solutions- some exciting results that could shape the future #tolerantvarieties #seedbreeding #noinsecticide

Thanks @CCC_agronomy for an interesting trials visit at their Dorset site, a couple of new exciting varieties coming through, along with the old favourites!

It’s trials season! 🌾 The team have been visiting various trial sites to be updated on what has been seen this year, particularly interesting to look at new chemistry in this high pressure season. @niabgroup

It’s film day today for Crop Advisors and @AICC1981 ! Stunning views & top quality crops making for a great backdrop. 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥 🎥

What a lovely evening at Lower Norton Flower Farm saying goodbye to Grace whilst crafting some beautiful flower posies! Even Howard had a go #flowerpower #britishflowers lowernortonflowerfarm.com

We were delighted to sponsor The Hampshire Farmers Club ‘Next Generation’ event last week @hallandburge , great to see so many keen youngsters coming into the industry!

As the catchy weather continues, T2 fungicide choices become ever more important. Farmers Guardian got some impartial technical advice from @AICC1981 agronomists around Great Britain. fginsight.com/news/big-septo…

Our very own Howard has hit the headlines!! Read the article to learn just some of his wisdom….

Spring has finally sprung!! The phone lines are quiet in the office as our farmers are busy getting caught up on their long jobs list 🗓️☀️ Can you #spotthedifference between these two pictures?! 🐶

Crop Advisors has a new member of staff…

At the second of the @AICC1981 regional briefings, we heard from @BASFcropUK @Bayer4CropsUK @FMCAgroUK @_LifeScientific @Rotam_UK and @AdamaAgri . Now we are all set and ready for the season ahead!! ☀️ 🌾 🚜

Fascinating to hear from Dr Bodo Peters & Dr Andreas Mehl at @Bayer4CropsUK Cereal Resistance workshop, sharing the sensitivity status of key cereal pathogens and emphasising how vital it is that we protect current chemistry. And, how digital tools can aid resistance management.

Getting ready for the season at the @AICC1981 Southern region technical meeting today, hearing from @SyngentaCropsUK @Clayton_PP_Ltd @SipcamUK @NufarmUK @KWSUKLtd @CortevaUK @certis_belchim #independentagronomy #springbriefing

An interesting day spent learning all about pest & disease management in pea & bean crops @pgroresearch #traineeagronomist
