This year’s Teagasc National Tillage Conference is set against a background of the challenging 2019 Autumn, which led to a reduction of up to 50% in winter crop plantings. Meanwhile, the sector continues to face significant risks posed by the loss of important chemistries for pest, disease and weed control and the need to ensure sustainable practises.

‘Minimizing risk, promoting sustainability’ is the theme of the Teagasc conference. It’s focused on delivering answers to many of the decisions stakeholders need to make in advance of the 2020 crop season.
