On-farm trials provide an economical way of comparing management options, on both a practical and economic level, without exposing yourself to needless risk.
Growers Leading Change (GLC) has updated a series of booklets, originally produced with SFF funding, to help you design and run a reliable on-farm trial. This series of booklets will help you design and run a reliable on-farm trial. Much of the information is also relevant for try-outs (less rigorous on-farm studies) or demonstrations.
The trial guide includes several documents including a 'how to' guide, data recording sheets for use throughout the trial and a statistical analysis tool to help you make sense of rsuts.
