Rotations beyond cover crops

With the current pressure on growers from the climate and volatile markets to rising input costs, getting rotations correct has never been more important. But what does a profitable rotation look like on Scottish farms today?

Following the excellent discussions during our November 2026 Cover Crops meeting at The Arbroath Golf club, we are inviting you to the next stage of the conversation.

Join fellow farmers, agronomists and industry experts for a practical meeting where we will look at how to build a rotation that delivers both profitability and resilience.

We will cover

• Making the most of current rotations
• Alternative crop options
• Where cover crops fit
• Practical experiences
• Real ideas you can take home and apply to your own farm

There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and speak to other farmers with similar experience whilst enjoying an excellent lunch.

Why come?

• Hear practical options you can use in the coming season and beyond
• Hear from leading experts and growers
• Build on the discussions from last year’s cover crops meeting
• Earn BASIS and NROSO points
• Enjoy a great lunch while catching up with fellow growers

So, whether you’re already using cover crops or just starting to think about changing your rotation, this meeting will give you fresh ideas and practical insights to help increase the profitability of your business.

See you there!
