Lovely frost last Friday morning for the mechanical #covercrop destruction treatment at our @AffinityWater site 🥶 We'll be comparing nitrogen release from this vs. glyphosate #NiCCsProject #covercrops @PortsmouthWater @anne_bhogal @rachelthorman1 @aphidman

Deep burrowing earthworms create vertical burrows that improve #soil porosity & water filtration, allowing crop roots to grow deeper. @DBerdeni & @IFarmers are looking at how we can increase worm numbers. Read about their field lab this #WorldWormDay! innovativefarmers.org/news/2020/sept…

Cover crops have multiple benefits incl. #soilhealth and #water quality. To maximise those benefits, you need to consider species choice, establishment, management & destruction. We'll be covering all of this on our webinar tomorrow at 10:30. Register at adas.uk/News/webinar-c…

Fantastic to be on #BBCFarmingToday this morning discussing our #fieldlab research quantifying whether deep burrowing earthworms can improve crop rooting depths. @broadwayorchard @IFarmers @ADASGroup @SquabRob @anne_bhogal @drkindred bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

The #fieldlab investigating the best soil management practices to maintain a healthy population of deeper rooting earthworms is on #BBCFarmingToday this morning. Hear @broadwayorchard and @DBerdeni talking about why the #farmerled research is important.👇 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
