Soils are a vital component in both arable crop and forage production, and the Niab Soil Hole will be back giving you the opportunity to view some of Niabs wide range of varieties from above and below ground.
With over 25 different crop species across 130 plots the Niab stand, and its neighbouring Soil Hole exhibit, sets the standard for ‘plant science into practice’.
The Niab stand at the Cereals Event is known for providing the latest technical advice and research in variety choice, independent agronomy, soil and rotation management, crop genetics and data science.
