We’re back for the New Year and straight into the detail as we head out to the Agrii site at Throws Farm to kick off 2026 properly. After some time away, James gets back up to speed on what’s changed, what’s coming, and where the pressure points are for UK farming this season.In this episode we take a deep dive into crop trials, bio-stimulants and soil variability, asking the big question many growers are facing right now, where is the missing yield going, and can technology really help us find it? We look at how bio-stimulants are tested across different soil types, how trials are funded, and what it actually takes to validate performance claims before anything earns a place on the farm.We also discuss changing chemical regulations, whether irrigation needs to become part of future farm planning, and how advances in data, monitoring and crop technology could reshape decision-making on UK arable farms. Along the way, we meet the team inside the glasshouse, break down how trials are structured, and look at how independent agronomy supports better on-farm outcomes.For those interested in our new merchandise: https://pxfarms.myshopify.com/P.X.
