Spring Varieties


Listen Later

In the first episode of the BASIS Agronomy Matters Podcast in 2021 we are looking ahead to spring with a specific focus on seed and variety selection. Greg Hopkinson, Head of Business Development at BASIS, speaks to three guests about how to select the correct variety for a range of spring sown crops. 

Our first guest was Sarah-Jane Osbourne from AHDB who explained how to get the most out of the Recommended List and identified some key spring cereal varieties to look at this year. Sarah-Jane was followed by Steve Belcher, Principal Technical Officer at PGRO, who focussed on variety choice for peas and beans. Steve also gave some top tips on how to successfully establish pulse crops in the spring. 

Finally we spoke to John Burgess from KWS about how to select the correct maize variety, and seed treatment, for a range of different agronomic situations.
