[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 3237858, member: 2119"] I am a member and find it very useful. In particular I like the way it presents a a variety of options for treatment, allowing you to make your own judgement as to whether to go for the Rolls Royce or budget option. The email bulletins though the growing season are helpful. I was quite surprised that it only counts as 2 points per year towards NROSO, while the sprayer update which a a morning of nattering before Christmas dinner at the pub counts for 10 points. Surely NIABTAG membership should be worth as much? With regards to quality assurance schemes, my inspector would not accept NIAB TAG information as contributing to a managed approach to agronomy but would accept that it "did it myself". I would have thought that being a NIABTAG member should count something with regards to quality schemes and is surely better than just "doing it yourself". It's tempting to cancel membership and just run on old info for a couple of years, especially as membership counts for nothing with quality schemes and contributes a negligible amount to NROSO, but so far I've played the game and kept on renewing, at I will say, considerable cost, but I think it has been cost effective.
