Visitors to The CropTec Show at the East of England Showground on November 23 and 24 are invited to explore the most pressing issues facing the arable sector via five specialist Knowledge Hubs. Water, natural capital, digital farming, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and training are the focus for the Hubs which have their own programme of presentations plus experts on hand throughout the days for further questions and discussion.
Future Water Quality and Quantity
Julie Jackson, Catchment Advisor for Anglian Water, sponsor of the Water Hub said: “We are looking forward to discussing water quality and quantity and the impact that this may bring to agriculture and Anglian Water in the next five years. “The Water Hub at CropTec will be a great way to get these discussions started and find answers to the questions that we all have. Anglian Water would like to make water part of your future.”
Getting Value From Farming Data
Bayer’s Digital Farming Hub will be exploring how new technology, such as its digital farming platform Climate FieldView, is changing the way farmers collect, share and interact with their data. Max Dafforn, Digital Activation Manager said: “Modern farming is generating huge amounts of data and farmers are told this data has value. We will be sharing on-farm examples from this harvest of how farmers are using data to inform variety choice, optimise nitrogen use, evaluate disease management and streamline data collection.”
Leveraging Natural Capital
Trinity AgTech will be putting natural capital under the spotlight in its Hub which will examine the opportunities for farmers. Trinity’s Director of Business Development Anna Woodley will discuss how to create an asset register of a farm’s natural capital potential and how to leverage it to create multiple income streams.
A Fresh Approach to IPM
AHDB will be taking a fresh look at Integrated Pest Management (IPM) at its Hub encouraging growers to consider the potential benefits of implementing IPM principles including stable yields, reduced costs and environmental payments. Speakers will explore the tools, research-based information and services available to help growers plan for success.
Learning and Personal Development
The BASIS-sponsored Training Zone will be encouraging visitors to think about their professional development. Its programme will focus on soils, environment and crop protection and the importance of keeping skills and knowledge of those key areas up to date, as well as showcasing the opportunities available.
