Brewing Sustainable Change with Malting Barley
Today we are going to be talking with Rodger Shirreff, national seed business manager at Agrii and Tom Barker, UK product manager at Secobra. This episode will be focusing on malting barley and looking at the key varietal characteristics that growers should look out for, as well as considering what varieties need to achieve for the grower and the wider marketplace from a breeder's perspective.
Agrii R&D conduct an extensive range of independent trials that supports the development of our IPM programmes. For more information on varieties, visit our autumn seed microsite at yearbook.agrii.co.uk/autumn-24 or contact your local seed specialist by visiting the Agrii website contact page.
