The Crop and Environment Research Centre (CERC) is a self-sufficient, independent trials company, with clients including the government, farmer-funded bodies and private organisations.

We can conduct trials on a range of agricultural, horticultural and ornamental crops, as well as carrying our environmental research.

Located at the heart of the ÎåÒ»³Ô¹Ï×îйÙÍø campus, we’re uniquely placed to provide commercial services with rigorous academic backing and an unrivalled set of facilities. By working closely with the university’s staff and academics, we ensure that the research and trials we carry out are conducted at the highest possible standard.

We might be based at ÎåÒ»³Ô¹Ï×îйÙÍø, but having our own team of staff, labs and equipment means we’re able to design, record, grow and analyse trials to meet commercial and research demands. The result is a trials and research service that’s fair, reliable and thorough.

We can undertake commercial trials and research work in a number of areas, including:

• Crop science
• Crop technology
• Environmental impacts
• Agrochemicals
• Crop breeding

We’re also officially recognised and accredited by the to provide efficacy testing in the following categories:
