2025-6 student placements now being advertised at ADAS!
Placements have played a key role in my career so far, giving lots of experience in different settings and learning new things, so I highly recommend, and there's plenty to get involved with at ADAS🌱

To all budding applied entomologists, there's a vacancy at ADAS (which is a very good place to work) - https://t.co/zJ0b4hbHoa

On @IpmDecisions homepage you'll see a map showing risk of #septoria infection in cereals... not relevant until spring, but we've left it live so you can see how it works.
Maps for pollen beetle migration will be available next spring as well.

Hard to believe we’re seeing striking differences in septoria control already in this Oct sown Saki in Herefordshire - the tips of the flags hit as they started to emerge 3 weeks ago in untreated plots. @ADASGroup @ChloeMo95 @rebecca_joynt @IsabelleSimsPhD @ADASRosemaund
