Thank you, to everyone who has taken the time to respond to the survey to share who you make #nutrient management decisions following #covercrops; we've had a fantastic response! There is still time to contribute, if you have 10mins to spare @AHDB_Cereals @ADASGroup
We're working with @AHDB_Cereals @SouthernWater @wessexwater and @AWCoastCountry to understand what you would like from a decison support tool🤔to help with nutirent management planning after cover crops! ☘️🌻🌿Please help by completing the survey, it takes less than 10mins.

When this government says disabled people ought to work, we ask: Where are the jobs? The level-access commuter trains? The accessible homes? The carers to dress me at 6am? (Right, Brexit made them leave.) The reduction in wait times for Access to Work, Wheelchair Services?

Do you grow or advise on cover or catch crops? If yes, we want to hear from you! 🌱 We want to understand how you account for nutrient availability from #covercrops to the following crop & what you would be looking for in a decision support tool! ⭐️ https://t.co/xjOjAzpYqZ
