ADAS Crop Report

ADAS reports winter crops have survived the cold winter conditions well. Some crops of winter oats and winter beans have seen plant losses but generally the picture is positive. The cold conditions have reduced both pest and disease pressures.

Milder February temperatures have led to more advanced crops than last season.
