Independent Business Resource Ltd (IBR) has launched a new contract field trials service, offering pre-registration research efficacy and selectivity trials as well as field scale development demonstrations, to manufacturers, distributors, advisory or research organisations.

The new contract trials business offers clients the skill and expertise of a highly experienced team, with over 40 years of combined field trials experience from within multinational agrochemical businesses.

Roger Pratchett of IBR said: “Whether you are a contract research or advisory organisation looking to outsource work, a manufacturer looking to register or expand product recommendations or a distributor looking to develop a point of difference from the competition, IBR Contract Field Trials can provide all the necessary resources you need to fulfil your objectives.

“Above all, the new business offers a personal, flexible and cost-effective service of the highest standards. Julian Brown, who manages the new service, has more than 25 years of field trials experience, with both farmer co-operatives and multi-national R&D based manufacturers, and is highly regarded in the industry for his technical expertise, attention to detail and professionalism.

“Protocols are managed, sites selected, chemicals applied, assessments made, yield data captured, produce analysed and reports written by senior professionals, rather than being delegated to junior staff or even students, thereby ensuring added value on every project.”

The new business will cover all key arable regions including East Anglia, Midlands, South East and South West, and will be able to access most crop types from cereals and rape to roots and even specialist horticultural crops.
