An effective and fast way to publish facts and figures from variety trials to farmers
In order to make it possible for the farmer to grow the best varieties a quick and efficient presentation of new results from field trials is important. In Denmark all results and scores from variety trials are published on www.sortinfo.dk. The website is in Danish and English. Only a couple of days after registration in the field all scores from the variety trials are available on the internet.The site shows the varieties that have been tested, yields, winter hardiness, agronomic data, resistance to pests and diseases, agronomic characteristics, quality, etc. Data and scores from one year or more years can be studied, as well as data from single locations and on average can be seen.The system and the website Sortinfo.dk has been developed in cooperation between the Official variety testing and National field trials in Denmark. The field trial system is integrated, and the guidelines for scores and registrations are the same. In this way all data from the variety trials can be published in a simple and easy way, and the knowledge can be used by advisers, farmers and breeders right a way. The benefit for the farmer is that he has access to independent information which enables him to grow the best varieties, taking the specific conditions for his property in consideration. It is possible to develop this system and gather all scores and figures related to the varieties from variety trials all over Europe or the whole world. To make this possible a uniform guideline for running and scoring variety trials is needed. In addition, a common database and a homepage must be developed.The benefits are more knowledge about the varieties, which will provide a more stable production, and the opportunity for integrated pest management.
