Webinar: “The principles and practice of crop disease management through soil and mineral health”

A webinar with Mike Harrington of Edaphos and Hannah Jones of Farm Carbon Toolkit

Thursday 7th November, 6pm – 7pm

This is a National Lottery-funded Farm Net Zero (FNZ) event

Mike Harrington is well respected throughout the industry for his innovative thinking and solutions to address crop health challenges. He takes a holistic view of the soil and plant health and provides solutions integrating biological and chemical solutions where necessary. In this webinar, Mike will introduce a range of mineral and biological applications which enhance the natural disease resistance in plant.

Hannah Jones, who did a PhD in plant pathology a long time ago, will introduce aspects of plant defence which will link to practical in-field plant health management.

This webinar provides the background to two Farm Net Zero field trials at Tregooden and Pensipple Farms aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of cereal production. An event is planned in April 2025 to look at the trial progress.
