Now called @ForageYEN! Farmers, organisations & researchers working to find new innovative ways to enhance grass, forage and whole cropped cereal yields.
RB209 @AHDB_Cereals recommends using grain analysis to check if you have over or under-fertilised your crop. With benchmarking, you can compare your crop nutrition with other farms in your region.

FORAGE YEN - This year we are expanding Grass YEN to include maize and whole cropped cereals that are used for both livestock feed and energy production, re-branding to @ForageYen. If you are interested in taking part please email [email protected]@ADASGroup@adasYEN
Tomorrow at 10.30, @drkindred will be joining @Agri_Tech_E to discuss #YENZero, a new #farming network aiming to reduce crop #GHG emissions through shared metrics, ideas and tests.
If you're interested in working with others to reach #NetZero, tune in - https://t.co/LqUCaE3gyF

Great to be involved in @GrassYEN again this year - I’d encourage anyone who is interested in benchmarking silage grass yield & quality, as well as looking at ways to achieve maximum grass potential to get involved!
Interesting to hear about how 2020 weather has impacted silage yields from the @GrassYEN Model and network - alongside the impacts we recorded on grazed grass yields 🌱☔️☀️
Measuring yield and quality is crucial for understanding income, growth and return on investment. The @JohnDeere#Forage Harvester offers time-efficient, reliable, high-quality measurements that no other method can easily provide.
Now we’re moving on to discuss new ways to measure yield and grass quality using the @JohnDeere Self Propelled Forage Harvester and our project is comparing its performance with weighing & counting trailer method @RNWade1
Using satellites and drones to measure #grass yield opens up the prospect of a much simpler method of measuring grass crops, enabling farmers to test the effect of different agronomic treatments in order to optimise their grass husbandry approach @EvansKatie215@EIPAGRI_SP
@EvansKatie215 is now presenting a new exciting @EIPAGRI_SP project. Katie is working with three highly progressive grassland farmers in #Monmouthshire to develop a novel way of rapidly measuring agronomic treatment effects on #grass growth.
Neil Pickard presents the 2020 story of a #GrassYEN farm near Skipton - "one of the best things about #GrassYEN is the scientific measurements from the labs" that offer some great insight and learning opportunities.
