Business as usual, but differently
Our BBRO offices (Bexwell and Norwich) are now closed to visitors. To get in touch with us please see the contact details for our team and we will be happy to hear from you.
We want to reassure you that Team BBRO are working hard on your behalf as usual and, while complying with all the current restrictions, we are continuing to plan and carry out the research work, to analyse recent results and to collaborate with other industry partners.
Trials in the ground and aphid monitoring about to take off
We are pleased to report that the drilling of the 2020 sugar beet trials is well underway. We have just completed a large trial site in Norfolk and will continue at other sites where possible.
You will be interested to know that the process of establishing the aphid monitoring network for this year is underway. So, you can rest assured that we will be bringing regular updates of aphid activity as the season progresses.
BBRO BeetField events in July
In light of the COVID-19 situation we have taken the decision to cancel our summer Open Days. These were scheduled for the 7th and 9th July. We will be organising alternative ways of sharing the planned information from these events with you.
Ongoing BBRO advice and support
As always, BBRO are also ensuring you have the very latest information for the 2020 sugar beet crop. Please keep an eye out for all our communications, further updates and important advice and suggestions: on our website, in the regular Advisory Bulletin, on twitter and through our ‘Brilliant Basics’.
We are, as always, at your service and ‘by your side’ with your sugar beet crop.
