Sybil Ruscoe is at Cereals 2016
Sybil Ruscoe is at Cereals 2016. 26,000 people attended the event over two days in Cambridgeshire to discuss crops, pesticides, research and big machines.
Sybil Ruscoe is at Cereals 2016 - the event for the cereals sector, held this year across 60 acres in Cambridgeshire. Among the hot topics as the delay over the re-licensing of the controversial weed killer Glyphosate, currently held up by disagreements at EU level.
We hear how drones are becoming a common part of the farmer's armory, used to spraying as well as crop monitoring. And Sybil descends into the soil pit, new at the event this year, to show farmers just what goes on beneath the surface. Produced by Sally Challoner.
