We are super excited to announce that we made a video with the Country Trust as part of their #PlantYourPants project! Joined by @MattHutchings10 and scientists from John Innes Centre we explored the smell of soil with West Earlham Junior school. youtu.be/xwN7dImB088?si… #soil

Check out “Plant Your Pants” 🌱🩲 a super new video from Jenni Rant and Country Trust in collaboration with @MattHutchings10 and other scientists from John Innes Centre! 📺 youtube.com/watch?v=xwN7dI…

Was really fantastic to talk to all the visitors at John Innes Centre #breedersday today about the great #brassica science in Advancing Plant Health and Building Robustness in Crops This is the peaceful scene after all the fantastic networking

Lovely to see that our Advancing Plant Health #CSFB flyers match my boots!
