The AHDB Recommended Lists 2017/18 are managed by a project consortium of AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds, BSPB, MAGB and nabim.

Funding for the Recommended List trials and tests is provided by AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds but the production of the Lists would be impossible without the contribution and support of the industry.

For specific Recommended Lists enquiries, please call 024 7647 8920.

Preliminary data The selection of new varieties to promote into AHDB Recommended List trials is made on the basis of preliminary data collected during National List and other trials and tests and these data also make a major contribution to the variety means presented in the Recommended List tables. Acknowledgement is made to Defra and the devolved governments as well as BSPB for the use of these data.
