"The Cereals Event just keeps going from strength to strength.  There's nothing to touch it for progressive technical content, must-have business information and great networking opportunities.  If you are serious about arable, you can't afford to miss it." Farmers Weekly

Crop Plots

Cereals offers a first hand opportunity to assess field performance of agrochemical rates, timings and management options.  A unique combination of more than 90 crop plots from manufacturers, research bodies and independent advisors makes this the 'must see' technical heart of the Cereals Event.

Renewables

Renewables is a growing part of the Cereals Event dedicated to innovations in renewable energy, biofuel and crop-derived materials.

Sponsored by Drax Power and supported by the National Non-Food Crops Centre, the Renewables area combines crop plots with exhibitors offering not only grower contracts but also specialist advice on cropping options, practical applications and routes to market.

Potatoes

Potatoes have become a popular part of the Cereals Event and now feature in their own dedicated area offering a comprehensive display of agronomy, machinery, storage and handling through to marketing solutions.

Business Alley

Business Alley is the chance to get both expert advice and the latest opinions from fellow professionals within the arable sector and the wider farming industry.

The Arable Conference

The Oxford Farming Conference (OFC) partners Cereals to bring a summer conference to the industry's flagship technical arable event.  Thought-provoking speakers tackle two topics: Applied Arable Science and the Campaign for the Farmed Environment, both issues inextricably linked with the sector's future and its competitiveness.  For more information, please click here.
