Excellent start to the #YEN2026 conference. About 40% of the audience are farmers and @CBaxter_91 is demonstrating that high yields make economic sense and don't have to come with a high carbon footprint. #yield #farming @adasgroup.bsky.social

#Groundswell25 was fantastic!
🫚 Annual date with a chicory #taproot in the #soil pit @ADASGroup stand. 🫘 Beans & pulses talk: Cultural acceptance, school meals, diversity, price, risk on farm & connecting breeders and producers. Highlight, was meeting so many lovely people.
Off the back of our lovely Legumes meeting at the University of Reading earlier this month we are happy to announce this special issue of Annals of Applied Biology!
🫘 All you keen beans - get writing!
