“This was our first time with a stand and variety plots at Cereals, and it was a great success with the two well-attended days keeping us busy with visits from growers and our trade contacts,” comments Chris Guest, LSPB Managing Director.

Chris Guest and Michael Shuldham (l-r) announce the grower competition.
“The event was the ideal opportunity to mark the 125 year anniversary of NPZ by launching a competition for growers with a visit to the NPZ breeding station in northern Germany as first prize.
“We also hosted a reception for the trade to toast the NPZ track record of successful plant breeding and progress for agriculture and society – and were joined at the reception by two of our colleagues from NPZ in Germany.

“LSPB’s objective is to make a real difference to the UK farming industry through the combination of our UK-based breeding programmes and the expertise and cutting-edge technology of NPZ.
“All-in-all, with good visitor numbers and our two celebratory events, this year’s Cereals was very worthwhile for us. We look forward to Cereals 2023,” adds Chris.
