  • Trials on the following field crops: winter cereals (wheat, barley, triticale, oats…), summer cereals (corn/maize, sorghum, rice…), protein crops (peas, beans…), oilseeds (soybeans, rapeseed…), fodder crops (alfalfa, ray-grass…), energy crops, etc.
  • Edition of field notebooks for control, monitoring and data registration.
  • Data recording across the crop season.
  • Statistical analysis and report preparation.

Plant material evaluation trials

  • Agronomic performance.
