Ron stays on for our ‘Ask the Expert’ piece to answer some frequently asked questions on BYDV…whether growers can control it with Insecticides, if BYDV’s a top priority for the LG Barley Breeding Programme, explanations on genetic tolerance & looking into the near future – if Limagrain has tolerant varieties for commercial release.
Then we’re over to Liam Wilkinson – our Arable Crops Development Officer, for an insight into the benefits of beans.
Our newbie, Cereals & Pulses Product Manager Tom Barker, makes his GatePost debut by talking us through some of his lessons learned throughout this challenging season.
We catch up with Trevor Lay from the East Anglia branch of the Turtle Dove Trust and find out exactly what’s involved with running the project. For more info, feel free to contact Trevor directly, on waveneywildlife@gmail.com
Forage Crops Director, Martin Titley, addresses the launch of the new Environmental Land Management Scheme, in line with the governments ambitious 25-year environment plan.
…and we’ve even managed to fit in a fun crossword for those budding gamers out there – no prizes this time I’m afraid, just a bit of street cred!
