Register for Lodi UK’s grain storage pest protection training webinar

Agricultural pest control company, Lodi UK, will host their first ever webinar to advise growers, agronomists, and pest controllers on the latest best practice on effective grain store pest protection.

Sam D’Angelo, marketing manager at Lodi UK, says grain rejections can cost farmers as much as £50/tonne which is why grain and animal feed storage needs close attention. To support with this, Lodi are running a BASIS accredited training webinar on the 21st April at 10am.

“The ‘Grain Store Pest Protection’ webinar is worth two BASIS CPD points, two PROMPT points and one BPCA point and is aimed at agronomists, arable farmers and pest controllers who want to protect their grain stores or animal feed bins from pests such as grain weevils and rodents,” says Sam.

“The webinar will be presented by two well-known industry specialists and there will also be a live Q&A panel at the end, where you can ask questions and Farmer Tom, Arable Farmer & Founder of the charity, Farmer Time will give a farmer’s perspective.

“Ken Black, from Bayer will focus on grain storage hygiene and the importance of early store preparation pre harvest. In addition, Mark Ward from Command Pest Control will be presenting on the practical elements of pest control best practice.

“Following on with the grain theme, we also have Dan Szor, from Cotswolds Distillery talking about the post-harvest process of turning grain into whiskey,” he adds.

“In case the weather is bright and there are tasks that can’t wait, you are also able to ‘phone in’ to the webinar and listen to it handsfree,” says Sam.

He adds that anyone who signs up will be able to request a 16-page guide which will contain all the information included in the webinar, in an easy-to-read format with plenty of additional topics, like fly and rodent control, covered.
