🌾 When margins are tight, every decision needs to stack up. When growing second wheat or subsequent barley, Take-all is one of the risks worth factoring into your autumn drilling decisions. It can affect root development, crop establishment and ultimately yield and profitability. But what does protecting your crop actually look like for your farm? That’s where our Latitude® Calculator can help. Simply enter: ✔️ Your crop price ✔️ Latitude cost ✔️ Seed rate The calculator uses your figures to estimate the yield required to cover the cost of Latitude and the potential gross margin at medium Take-all risk. No guesswork. No generic figures. Just a clearer way to assess the decision using your own numbers. #SecondWheat #WinterBarley #SeedTreatment #CropProtection

🥔 What you can’t see now could become a problem and a cost next year.⁠ ⁠ Seed potatoes can look perfectly healthy as they go into store, but Gangrene, Skin Spot and Fusarium dry rot can develop during storage, potentially compromising the quality of seed you’ve invested in for next season.⁠ ⁠ By the time symptoms become obvious, the opportunity to protect your seed has already passed. Gavel® is applied post-harvest, before storage, protect seed quality through storage. Protecting your investment for next year.⁠ ⁠ 🔐 One application. One opportunity. Make it count.⁠ ⁠ #SeedPotatoes #PotatoStorage #SilverScurf #FusariumDryRot ⁠ ⁠ Potato Growing | Seed Potato Growers | Crop Protection | Potato Disease | UK Agriculture | British Farming⁠

🍎 A day at Malvern Three Counties Showground! Our team headed to the Three Counties Autumn Show, where we were proud to support National Fruit Show Education. The education programme reaches around 11,000 children every year, helping young people learn more about fruit, growing and where their food comes from. 🌱 We loved seeing the stand in action and hearing how Mandy Hounsell brings the world of fruit into the classroom, with almost any topic on the national curriculum providing an opportunity to connect back to fruit! Of course, we couldn’t leave without taking a look at some of the showstopping oversized vegetables on display at the National Giant Vegetables Championship! Swipe through for a few highlights from the day!

You've found the slugs. You've identified the risk. But are you ready to apply control? Once you've decided slug control is needed in your autumn crop, make sure you: ✔️ Choose the right product for the job ✔️ Understand your applicator and setup ✔️ Calibrate correctly for accurate application And if you're not sure about calibration, our Slug Pellet Calibration Wizard is here to help🧙♂️ 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e3fsua2g #SlugManagement #SlugControl #AutumnDrilling

Growing wheat this season? Your seed treatment can do more than simply treat the seed. GramaxNP® is a microbial seed treatment designed to support the crop from the point of planting, helping with the things that matter when establishing a strong second wheat. Its 8-species microbial consortium supports key nutrient processes, including nitrogen fixation and the solubilisation of phosphorus and potassium. So, if you're looking at your wheat seed treatment this autumn, it’s worth asking: can my seed treatment be doing more?

🥔 Protect your investment with Gavel.⁠ ⁠ After harvest, your seed potatoes still have a long way to go before they return to the field next season. During that time, Gangrene, Skin Spot and Fusarium dry rot can threaten quality in storage, often before you see the problem.⁠ ⁠ That’s why the post-harvest window is the optimum time to apply Gavel to support healthier seed through storage, protecting the investment you’ve already made.⁠ ⁠ #SeedPotatoes #PotatoStorage #PotatoGrowing
