Field services

Staphyt provides customised agricultural research through officially recognised field trial stations and partner sites. Field agronomists, project managers and scientists test products and varieties to assess performance, efficacy and safety. Services include efficacy and positioning trials, residue studies, fertilisation trials, seed care and breeding, and GMO and special-project studies. Staphyt designs studies around client requirements and supports trial programmes from early product development through launch, working with its Regulatory Affairs department where needed. Study capabilities include field, semi-field, laboratory and controlled-environment trials, as well as research, screening, registration and demonstration work.
