As part of a major review of the AHDB Recommended Lists for cereals and oilseeds (RL), the online focus groups provide the perfect opportunity to discuss the variety trialling project and how to adapt it to meet the evolving needs of modern farming businesses.

The online meetings are primarily aimed at farmers and agronomists, with the agenda guided by the emerging results of the RL review.

The facilitated discussions will explore how farmers make variety selection decisions and address pressing challenges to ensure that the RL’s limited resources focus on delivering the best value to industry.

This is one of three focus group meetings. The other two are:

31 January 2023 (8:00am–9:30am), organic focus.

22 February 2023 (9:00am–10:30am)

Complete the questionnaire

In addition to the focus groups, people can fill in an online questionnaire – arguably, the quickest and simplest way to express views.

Aimed at all users of the RL in Great Britain, the questionnaire is open until 17 February 2023.

The RL team is also seeking views from all stakeholders with an interest in the RL.
