We have schools across Scotland growing barley and linseed monocultures and mixtures as part of the SEAMS project with @JamesHuttonInst @BuglifeScotland. The RHET seeds are looking great. 🙌 If you have seed pics to share we'd love to see them! 🌱 📷

The #CropDiversityExperiment reveals an unexplored yield potential in #intercropping given that despite the significant yield benefits of crop #diversification, higher plant diversity favours vegetative over reproductive growth with current cultivars nature.com/articles/s41477-0… – at Torrejón el Rubio, España

How to solve the challenge of separating grain harvested from intercrops? PhD students have been 'doing the maths' to find novel methods with @JamesHuttonInst in the @ICMS_Edinburgh modelling camp. Well done @PrabhleenKaur93 @thosine_01 and all the team! @PlantTeams @SEAMixtureS
