UK: Rhubarb Growers' Group to represent sector
Rhubarb growers will be meeting on 7th May in Yorkshire to view the new HDC funded herbicide trial. A meeting with HDC will also be organised to discuss future research priorities for the sector including the requirement for additional crop protection products.
Rhubarb is not grown by a large number of commercial growers so all involved in this sector are encouraged to join the group and become involved in shaping research work to meet the needs of their own enterprises.
British Growers who already provide the administration for 14 crop associations are helping to establish the new group in conjunction with the HDC.
