This year’s event is divided into four sections: Current issues, adjuvants, sprayer maintenance and technology.

Operators will have the opportunity to share tips and solutions that work for them and learn best practice techniques, from their colleagues and others attending the events, that can be used to improve spraying practice in the future.

The numbers attending each workshop are limited and places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. This is your opportunity to collect your National Register of Sprayer Operators (NRoSO) CPD and BASIS points, at a venue near you.
