Organisation: ADAS

Information on a pioneering project investigating how companion cropping can support pest, weed, and disease management in oilseed rape grown in Sweden and the UK.

This winter, a series of AHDB events are taking place across the UK to help farmers tackle arable pest, weed and disease resistance.

Join the ADAS team and guest speakers in Suffolk to learn how to maximise the value of your organic materials on your farm. Part of Agri-Tech Week 2025.

This free webinar explores the latest research on the nutrient benefits of cover crops, featuring insights from ADAS scientists on nitrogen release, crop performance, and findings from a UK-wide farmer and agronomist survey on nutrient management strategies.

Join this online event to hear ADAS crop physiologists discuss the agronomic and greenhouse gas benefits of using nitrification and urease inhibitors in arable crop production.

ADAS webinar on the NUTRI-CHECK NET project’s  three-step approach to support farmers in ‘checking’ their crops’ nutritional performance – ‘Plan, Check & Adjust, Review’

This YEN Zero workshop will discuss the economics of mitigation strategies that can reduce crop carbon footprints to demonstrate how they can work in a wider farming business.

How do you tackle the biggest problem facing arable farmers in the UK? This is video footage of a Groundswell 2024 session run by Agricology, borne out of a collaboration with ADAS and the Oper8 project.

Throughout May, ADAS is hosting free soil structure and cultivation demonstration events for local farmers with soil cultivation expert Philip Wright.

As part of the Oper8 projects ‘demo days’ we are joining forces with LiveSeeding & Organic Arable for their series of farm walks

Free webinar to hear about the latest water company funded research conducted by ADAS on cover crop management

ADAS are hosting this kick-off event for IPM NET – a knowledge exchange network to advance IPM, and the start of a pilot year of this initiative.

Oper8 is a three year EU horizon project bringing together farmers, researchers and academics to share alternative weed control solutions.

This ADAS webinar will introduce YEN Zero, explain why growers should benchmark their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and help you to identify agronomic practices for reducing GHGs associated with crop production.

ADAS and The Organic Research Centre are hosting a workshop to evaluate alternative weed control solutions for arable and field vegetable production

The Toolbox is an interactive, online library of IPM resources designed for farmers and advisors and is available in multiple languages.

Interested in a one-stop-shop for everything you need to protect your crops? ADAS’ Eleanor Dearlove explains how the IPM WORKS Resource Toolbox could offer you that…

Discover, discuss and explore the latest innovations, world-leading research and history of NU farms

The fist in a series of webinars from the OPER8 project, this webinar will focus on electric weeding.

It is recognised that there is a need to bring together the scientific evidence supporting the implementation of regenerative agriculture, to help evaluate the potential benefits and challenges for food production, the environment and farm profitability, across different agroclimatic zones and farming systems.

I joined ADAS as a soil scientist 15 years ago. Most of my work has focussed on sustainable soil and nutrient management practices. I’ve been involved in a number of projects investigating manure management strategies to maximise crop nutrient supply and minimise air and water pollution. At the moment I’m researching the sulphur supply from […]
