About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

We would like to invite you to visit our field plots demonstrating the wide range of research projects as part of the International Barley Hub (IBH) programme.


Sited at The James Hutton Institutes Balruddery Farm, we have over 5000 plots showcasing how we have been using the variation in barley to tackle the challenges of reduced inputs and unpredictable climate, while maintaining stable yields.


Many of the trials are part of student projects which are sponsored by industry and funded through UK government Collaborative Training Partnership (CTP). These cover a wide range of topics from agronomic and management practices to remote sensing, malting quality and breeding.


Partners working with students include members of the distilling and malting industry such Scotch Whisky Research Institute, Diageo and Bruichladdich and breeding companies KWS Lochow and Syngenta.


We will run 3 tours, each lasting an hour:

1pm

2pm
