Read source ↗ All evidence

Summary

This AHDB-organised practitioner forum (winter 2026) convened expert consensus on integrated resistance management across pest, weed, and disease pressures in Northern Ireland arable systems. Rather than presenting primary research, the event synthesised current best practice and strategic recommendations, positioning integrated resistance management as a systems-level challenge requiring coordinated, evidence-informed practice. The output supports Northern Ireland and broader UK arable farming engagement with resistance management as a farming systems priority.

Regional applicability

This event was specifically convened for Northern Ireland arable farming practice and policy, making the findings directly applicable to the region. Recommendations are positioned as transferable to broader UK arable systems facing similar resistance management challenges.
