Nomination for YEN Innovation Award 

The overall aim of the YEN is to foster and encourage innovation in the agricultural industry.  

As part of this, we strive to recognise the efforts of the farmer-led innovations to enhance crop performance. This Innovation Award will be given in recognition of efforts to improve yield through innovations on farm.

Any 2022 YEN entrant or YEN Sponsor can nominate any farmer participating in the YEN for the award by completing the form below. The winner will be announced at the YEN 2022 Conference on 24th January 2023.

This year's Innovation Award is kindly sponsored by Limagrain. Image removed.

Data

Agriculture now generates vast amounts of data of different types and at different scales. The ownership, access, control, sharing, value, permissioning, intergration, security, safeguarding and sovereignty of this data represent multiple challenges and opportunities for the sector.

YEN

The Yield Enhancement Network (YEN) was launched in 2012 to support and energise on-farm learning-by-sharing and thus to enhance farming progress.

Farm centric research

Farm-centric research generally involves On-Farm Experimentation and may be better described as 'Farm Action Research', i.e. research conducted at least in part by and for beneficiaries who also farm. 

Events

Agricultural Shows have always been a very important place for farmers and the industry to share knowledge. The nature of agricultural shows has changed, but there are now an increasing number of staple events for a range of communities.

YEN Yield Testing

EIP-Agri Project supporting groups of YEN farmers to test specific ideas.

Yield

Crop yield has been a major subject of research and industrial improvement for decades.  The YENs have set out a framework for understoanding yield in terms of capture and conversion of the major resources light and water. Temperature plays a role in crop development and can also have a substantial impact on growth and yields.

Farmer led innovation

Many of the most telling innovations that make a difference on-farm come from farmers themselves, or from close collaboration between farmers, advisors, industry and researchers

Crop Physiology

Crop physiology is the study of how plants function and respond to their environment. It involves understanding the factors that affect crop growth and development, such as light, temperature, water, and nutrients, and the physiological mechanisms that plants use to adapt to their environment, such as photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration.
