Isn't getting to be very much the case that the NRoSO updates are becoming like Christmas meetings with the In Laws. Everything that can be said has been said, and its a real struggle to come up with anything new or original........in other words its a money for old rope scheme, no?
Let’s face it, what difference does it make to my spraying skills if I read potash news or this forum.
I take advice from a qualified agronomist and read the label instructions on the product. Oh, and I’ve been doing it for over 40 years.

Although I agree, I also agree with ongoing training, however being an active member on here or even talking to your peers at the pub, mart, sale, open day, probably gives more than the training courses we have to do.
Edit Mind you they are a masters degree course compared to the drivers CPC ones I have to do.

Did anyone else jump through all the online hoops for the six points that the Croptec show was offering back at the end of November?
And have you seen any of your points yet? No sign of them here.
My 6 Croptec points have appeared today! (After over 11 weeks!)
That puts me into the safe zone for my end of 3 year date in May, but I'm still logged into an AHDB webinar at the moment to gain another point to carry over into the next three year block.

Grab all you can while you can. You can carry 10 over into the next 3 year(or atleast you could) which is always a nice little head start if things go pear shaped at any point

I’m now going round in a loop of emails from 3 different employees who don’t seem to have the ability to talk to one another.
I sent email proof of meeting my agronomist twice in the last year, on headed paper from Hutchinsons, including what we discussed etc. But apparently that’s not good enough because it’s not on the forms they supply. 🙈

I called them in the end as points emailed in weren’t getting added. They were very helpful on the phone and got the points added straight away and offered advice on how best to achieve the required tally. IPM was a useful two points.

I'm still waiting for points I submitted at the begining of January. I sent a list of all the points I wished to have added but have heard nothing back only an automated email reply. Why is it such a faff to add nroso points when BASIS makes the whole job so easy.🤬
