I'm currently looking to collect adult cabbage stem flea beetles from oilseed rape grain stores. If you're a grower local to Shropshire or Staffordshire currently harvesting and infested with csfb, please let me know 🤚 #csfb

A great day out at Brixworth Farming. Got to tick riding in a big combine off my bucket list!! 😀🥳 And a fascinating visit to Charles Jackson & Co merchants. Thanks to @AHDB_Arabletech for organising

To help support those struggling with their #MentalHealth, I'm attempting to raise funds for RABI - the Farmers Charity by strapping myself to the wings of a vintage biplane & trying my best to accomplish some aerobatic moves at 135mph… #Farm24 #MentalHealthMatters justgiving.com/fundraising/sp…

What an inspirational day at Ben Taylor-Davies’s regenerative agriculture farm in Herefordshire. So much to learn and so many possibilities! #regenag #IPM #Herefordshire

Excited to be at my first in person conference in 3 years BCPC disease review. It’s great to see some new research on #ramulaia genetic resistance SRUC

Welcome to everyone attending today's BCPC Disease Review workshop at Niab. The morning session finished with 4 student posters from Niab, Rothamsted Research & SRUC

Is this a Violet Black-legged Robber Fly - Dioctria atricapilla @SoldierfliesRS? Nr Bawburgh, Norfolk. Seen on wheat.

Flies🪰 are like:

The latest results from AHDB Cereals funded CSFB monitoring are in! The highest recorded cumulative number is still at the Suffolk site but the Kent and Yorkshire sites are slowly catching up. For regular updates visit ahdb.org.uk/csfb

The number of beetles at our Cambridgeshire site are now on the rise and have been primarily caught in the 1 metre traps. Crops at this site have emerged with the first leaf unfolded. For regular updates visit ahdb.org.uk/csfb

These giant tachinid flies (Tachnia grossa) are some of my most favourite late summer flies. If you're really really gentle you can hold them and see their beautiful yellow feets. These flies lay their eggs on caterpillars such as those from the Oak Eggar moth.

Great morning out recording content on IPM practices to reduce CSFB risk on farm 📽🎬 The content is based on findings from recent AHDB Cereals funded CSFB projects and will be released on our website in the near future. Watch this space 👀

Our Suffolk site continues to have the highest cumulative number of CSFB caught in both ground and raised traps but the Kent and Cambridgeshire sites are following closely behind! For regular updates visit ahdb.org.uk/csfb AHDB Cereals

Activity from adult CSFB has been low across all sites in recent weeks. Our Cambridgeshire site has recorded higher levels of larval scarring, with approximately 1/4 of plants scored this week showing signs of invasion AHDB Cereals
