The Recommended List Trials Programme involves approx.17 sites, of which up to 13 are taken for yield assessments. The programme includes trials for disease assessment and early sown bolting. The yield assessment sites involve 120 varieties, with four replications of each. In the region of 3,840 plots are taken from seed to harvest and ultimately processing through the BBRO plot trial unit with the sugar analysis being done in the commercial tare house at Wissington.
