2022-560 Trial Seed Processing

Notice Description

The AHDB Cereals and Oilseeds Recommended Lists are the definitive industry guide to cereal and oilseed varieties, giving levy-payers the information they need to select the correct variety for their businesses.

Variety trials and tests are conducted at numerous locations (trial sites) throughout the UK.
