CROPS 2012

Feature placeholder

FAR’s annual Crops Expo will be held at the Chertsey arable site near Ashburton on Wednesday 5 December 2012. The date is coming around fast and planning is now well underway to ensure that our biggest and most popular field event runs smoothly and has something to offer something for everyone. Amongst the plots on show this year will be trials on the effect of N on milling wheat, late season management of ryegrass, managing white clover bulk and the efficacy of new fungicides on barley. As in previous years there will be a mixture of scheduled talks and demonstrations as well as plenty of time to view sponsors’ sites and chat to presenters one on one. The field day will conclude at 5.30pm followed by drinks and a barbeque dinner. A full programme and entry tickets will be sent to all levy payers and industry subscribers in the coming weeks.

The Crops Expo would not be possible without support from our sponsors, and particular thanks go to Platinum agronomy sponsors PGG Wrightson, Dow Agrosciences, Agronica, Syngenta, Bayer Crop Science, and BASF, and Platinum machinery sponsors CASE IH, Power Farming and CB Norwood. Gold sponsors are: NZX Agri, Ballance AgriNutrients and Plains Irrigators, while our Silver sponsors are: Nufarm, Plant & Food Research, Irrigation New Zealand, Viafos Importing, CRT, Agri Optics, AgRecovery, AsureQuality and ANZ.
