Dr Grace Milburn

Ever considered joining us? With the launch of our Future Farm, we are also advertising a number of new roles. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of something big here at Harper! jobs.harper-adams.ac.uk/vacancies.aspx… @HarperAdamsUni

An amazing photo showing the @AHDB_Cereals RL wheat trials maturing. Many thanks to The Curious Raven for sending me this, it's just one aspect of the work we do here at the Future Farm @HarperAdamsUni

Welcome to the Future Farm! A restructure has allowed the University to share resources across a number of areas, with the Farm becoming predominantly research based. This combines commercial knowledge and research experience, to deliver solutions for the future. @HarperAdamsUni

Yesterday was spent in the field, marking out a 3 year wildflower trial with @TAJ1990 for his PhD. After my last few photos have been blue skies, this one is a true representation of field work - a soggy sandwich in the rain!

There's nothing quite like a freshly managed grass trial! @HarperAdamsUni

A beautiful end to a very variable but busy week. T0's applied, fertiliser spread and the removal of our LPG tanks taking us one step closer to Nett Zero. What better way to end the week than a bit of manure spreading in the sunshine! @HarperAdamsUni

We are having some problems with our mobile phone today. Please call us in the office (01952 815362) should you need us!

Working for @HAUCERC is never s dull moment. Afternoon spent preparing for Storm Eunice. 7 pollytunnel skins removed and safety put away.

Very proud to have @HarperAdamsUni sharing my story today. They have given me great support through this challenging journey and in telling my story. There is extra advice in the piece about where to look for help too - please read and share with anyone who might benefit. 👍

Sometimes the early morning starts at the office are just beautiful! @HarperAdamsUni @HarperKeeleVets

I found this on a trip to see Santa with my son at the weekend. I reckon the 500 lettuce seeds in the covers represent the number of times I'll be asked to read this in the not too distant future!

@GrahamHarperEng @HarperAdamsUni @VaderstadUK @TrialsEquipment @ClaydonDrill @KvernelandGroup There are some familiar @HAUCERC drills there! Great to show a how varied drills can be!

This week #harperagmech has been all about seeders @HarperAdamsUni featuring @VaderstadUK @TrialsEquipment #wintersteiger @ClaydonDrill @KvernelandGroup #accord

Testing baking ingredients as alternatives to pesticide seed treatments, ready for student tutorials. A new challenge every day! #safedemonstrations @HarperAdamsUni

Beautiful, sunny and crisp morning. The winter wheat RL plots are looking stunning at @HAUCERC @HarperAdamsUni

After returning from maternity leave almost a month ago, I've been busy trying to catch-up with everyone and everything. Hoping for a productive year ahead! @HarperAdamsUni

Cereals coming up strong in this changeable autumn

Its my final day before I go on maternity leave for 12 months. I will be leaving CERC in the capable hands of Joseph Blackshaw-Crosby today! Good luck to everyone for the year ahead, lets hope its easier than the last one!

A beautiful afternoon and a beautiful sight for any Trials Manager! The HAU teaching plots are being drilled! This year we are embracing technology more than ever by using our new drill and GPS system together. @HarperAdamsUni

Its been a busy few weeks here at CERC, potato harvest, maize harvest, WOSR drilling. The rain this morning was very welcome, we just hope its not a repeat of 2019!
