[QUOTE="Brid @ ADAS, post: 7857585, member: 148882"] Despite an average growing year for most crops, many growers managed to go above and beyond their predicted max yields, with Lincolnshire grower Tim Lamyman taking the top spots for his wheat yields and his world record breaking winter barley yield. The highest cereal and oilseed yields achieved at harvest 2021 were announced at this year’s Yield Enhancement Network (YEN) Awards on Wednesday 24th November at the Croptec Show. With award presentations by Tom Bradshaw, Vice President of NFU, 24 farms took home the evening’s top awards for highest yield and highest potential yield achieved for wheat, winter and spring barley, oats, and oilseed. The 2021 winners came from all corners of the UK, as well as from as far afield as Finland and New Zealand. Familiar names from 2020 made the shortlist once again in 2021. Tim Lamyman from Lincolnshire won Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards for wheat and achieved a world record yield of 14.2 t/ha for winter barley. Aberdeenshire grower and agronomist Iain Learmouth rewrote the grain yield rule book yet again this year, recording an exceptional 107% of his predicted yield. Mark McCallum of Ross-shire and Northern Irish grower Allan Chambers followed very closely behind, going above and beyond expert predictions of their top yield by achieving 107% and 105% respectively. Oat growers were recognised for the first time with their own separate category of awards. Simon Best from Co. Armagh took home the first ever Oat YEN gold award with Will Hamilton from Berwickshire claiming the silver. Roger Sylvester-Bradley, YEN Director said that Daniel Kindred, crop physiologist at ADAS, commenting on wheat yields said, Sarah Kendall, crop physiologist at ADAS, commenting on the many spring barley crops entered in YEN 2021, said Pete Berry, head of Crop Physiology at ADAS, commenting on oilseed yields in 2020-21, said that [B]Winners’ awards were as follows: [/B] [HEADING=1][B]Cereal
