AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds Monitor Farms

AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds Monitor Farms bring together groups of like-minded farmers who wish to improve their businesses by sharing performance information and best practice around a nationwide network of host farms.

An introduction to our Monitor Farms

AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds monitor farmers host four to six meetings on their farms each year. These farmer-led meetings provide an excellent opportunity to identify and share challenges and solutions. 

During the three years of each Monitor Farm, every aspect of the business is scrutinised. Whether looking at soil management or machinery policy, cost implications to the farm business always take centre stage.

With a focus on making real developments in their business management, improving productivity, competitiveness and environmental management, Monitor Farms try out new ideas, all with the support of AHDB and guidance from industry experts.

This year (2024), we are celebrating 10 years of the UK Monitor Farm programme.

Read some farmer views and learn about the programme's history in a special feature in the summer 2024 edition of Arable Focus magazine.

The Monitor Farm network offers guidance to growers looking to improve their businesses and learn from others, all with the support of AHDB and industry experts.
