Crop Plots
Hundreds of cereals, oilseed and root crop varieties will be on show at this year’s Cereals Event, including the latest additions to the various Recommended Lists vying for a place in growers’ sowing
plans.
There’s no better place than the Crop Plots at Cereals 2012 for farmers to scrutinise potential candidates for their arable acres, whether they are looking for varieties that make a better match for their markets or for improved agronomic traits to suit their farm.
The very latest varieties will be on display, from winter and spring wheat through to barley, maize, oats, triticale, oilseed rape, linseed, peas, beans, sugar beet, potatoes, cover crops and alternative crops. Agronomy demonstrations will include different seed rates and the effect of different seed dressings; disease resistance developments and comparisons; effects of different herbicides and differing Nitrogen rates and nutrient applications.
In the context of increasingly unpredictable weather and spiraling input costs, Cereals offers a firsthand opportunity to assess field performance of agrochemical rates, timings and management options.
