Research shows farmers think climate change is an opportunity

HGCA and PGRO launch joint Recommended List CD

For the first time, growers are now able to consult Recommended Lists for cereals, oilseeds and pulses on a single CD ROM.

In addition to the Lists, the new CD, issued free to levy payers with the 2005/6 HGCA Recommended Lists booklet, contains details of HGCA research publications, the PGRO Pulse Agronomy Guide and the interactive guide to cereal and oilseed varieties, RL Plus...

Professor Jellis, Lead Technical Director of the Applied Research Forum, said: "Putting the Lists for cereals, oilseeds and peas and beans all on one CD is good sense. It makes it easier and faster for growers to access variety data."

A copy of the HGCA RL booklet and CD can be obtained by contacting HGCA, 0207 520 3920, publications@hgca.com
