"Our objective is to ensure that advances in crop
production science are transferred effectively onto farm, to meet the
practical needs of our members. NIAB TAG's publications are part of
that process and should be an essential feature of any farm office.
They've been developed to provide members with a comprehensive source
of unbiased and trusted technical information aimed at maximising crop
performance and profitability, backed by robust data and delivered in a
very accessible format."
Stuart Knight, Director of Crops and Agronomy |
One of the principal benefits of NIAB TAG Network membership is the ready
access to a range of invaluable publications which cover the whole spectrum
of our activity. Together they present information which is timely, well
informed and simply not available elsewhere in such an easily digestible
format.

The
Variety and Seed Compendium covers all major arable and livestock
crops grown in the UK. With comprehensive information on most popular
varieties, including interaction tables and the cereal, oilseed and
pulse Classified Lists, it is an invaluable guide in answering client
queries and deciding on future cropping strategies when used in
conjunction with the NIAB TAG Variety Guides. The handbook also
contains information on end uses for grain, seed standards, crop seed
certification areas and crop areas, historic meteorological data and
other useful information for cereals, oilseeds, pulses, grasses,
maize, potatoes and sugar beet.

The
Variety Interactions Handbook is an innovative step forward in variety
management on-farm, adding value to the traditional Recommended and
Descriptive List data by summarising individual variety responses to
the grower's major sowing decisions, e.g. suitable dates, rates, and
row spacings in wheat, barley and oilseed rape crops.
