Will Hybrid Wheat Change Farming? Talking with Syngenta’s Head of Seeds

This week we’re joined by Syngenta’s Head of Seeds to discuss one of the biggest upcoming developments in arable farming, the future launch of hybrid wheat.We explore what hybrid wheat could mean for yield, crop resilience and the future of UK agriculture, while also looking at the challenges surrounding blackgrass, fertiliser timing and crop establishment. Alongside the discussion, we map blackgrass patches across the farm, assess volunteer barley in feed wheat, and review ongoing fertiliser timing trials.Elsewhere on the farm, roof repairs and grass cutting continue, fuel tanks get repaired, peas begin emerging, and progress continues on concreting the fertiliser store.A mixture of future farming technology and the practical realities of running a modern arable business.For those interested in our new merchandise: https://pxfarms.myshopify.com/Chapters:0:00 Intro0:58 Roof Repairs2:07 Grass Cutting4:24 Pool Repairs5:41 Syngentas Head Of Seeds10:00 Yield Increases With Hybrid Wheat14:50 Fixing Fuel Tanks17:43 Mapping Black Grass Patches22:21 Volunteer Barley In Feed Wheat 25:26 Fertiliser Timing Trial30:28 Peas Starting To Come Up32:05 Concreting The Fertiliser Store33:05 OutroP.X.
