About

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs awarded a contract to The Andersons Centre for the Early Bird Survey, commissioned by the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB), to provide a first snapshot of UK crop areas 10-11 months ahead of official June survey data from DEFRA.

The survey generates projected areas for cereals, oilseeds and other crops for the upcoming crop year, with a regional breakdown of predominant UK crops and responses covering an agreed nominal area within each region.

The data will be made freely and publicly available to inform business planning across the arable industry.

The contract runs from 1 August 2018 to 31 July 2019, with an option to extend for a further 12 months, and is valued at AUD 35,000.
