The 2026 ADAS Nutrition Challenge invites companies to put their nutrient-management strategies to the test. Participants will compete directly against ADAS crop scientists and the industry standard RB209 to see who achieves the highest gross margin over nutrient costs. The project aims to understand how farmers and agronomists can use fertilisers and biostimulants more efficiently. It ...
ADAS Senior Crop Research Scientist Dr Christina Baxter takes a look… Phosphorus (P) is a crop nutrient found in soils – critical for plant root formation, energy transfer, and DNA synthesis. Despite UK agricultural soils typically having good levels of P, it is an elusive nutrient for plants to capture, with many arable crops failing to take up enough P to reach their ...
This week, the Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE) awarded Professor Roger Sylvester-Bradley, Head of Crop Performance at ADAS, with the RASE 2025 Science and Technology Award, in recognition of his outstanding contribution to agricultural science. For over four decades, Roger has been at the forefront of agricultural science, shaping the way we understand and manage crop performance. ...
In a recent NUTRI-CHECK NET webinar, ADAS crop physiologists Dr Sarah Kendall and Dr Tamara Fitters shared how grain analysis and post-harvest reviews can play a pivotal role in refining nutrient strategies for future seasons. ...
The Yield Enhancement Network (YEN), founded by ADAS in 2012, has helped growers in the UK and North-West Europe benchmark their crop performance and identify yield restrictions to improve their productivity. Declining sponsorship has meant that 2025 will be the last harvest analysed by the two largest YENs – cereals and oilseeds. The YENs for peas and beans, facilitated by ADAS and ...
Creative Diagnostics, a leading manufacturer and supplier of antibodies, small molecule conjugates and critical assay reagents for the analysis of food, feed, environmental and toxicological samples, is proud to announce the development of a new series of high-quality test reagents for the detection of Diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), a potent mycotoxin. ...
This year’s challenge takes place on the Yorkshire Wolds with each entrant being assigned a 48 m2 plot of winter wheat replicated 4 times. A separate control treatment will receive nutrition in line with RB209 field assessment recommendations and a second control treatment will be left untreated. Other than fertiliser and biostimulant choice and timings, all other crop applications will ...
