Underpinning England's Paludiculture Roadmap

NIAB are leading a quick scoping project for Defra and have two separate questions to address:

• What are (and could be if crop area expands/ as a result of climate change) the main pest, disease and weed challenges for the most likely UK paludiculture crops (reed, typha, sphagnum, ….)
• Are there food/feed crops that should be prioritised for agronomy/breeding development for paludiculture systems in the UK

This workshop aims to address the first question.

If you have any quick thoughts on these questions, then please get in touch via colin.peters@niab.com
