A rough guide to the farmscale trials since 1999 info from GM-ACT email list.

A guess at trying to work out how many farmscale trials will have taken place on the same farm from 1999 including the Spring 2002 sites announced. Some of the grid references published are very close and the trials could be on neighbouring farms (for example Spital/Boothby Graffoe/etc – Lincolnshire is a nighmare to sort out). An attempt to group them together with the most trials hosted first.
Notes:
The Grid Refs for the 1999 maize trials were never published.
* or ** indicates a repeat use of a field for maize trial
Some of the trials may have been withdrawn for various reasons. I have listed the ones that I know about at the end.
[Y] = new farmer this year?
The 5th interim report on the farmscale trials refers to 180 studies being carried out by 75 farmers (I think that they have omitted the 1999 trials that were used to formulate the protocols). 80 more study sites were added this Spring and I estimated that SCIMAC may have found about 16 new farmers. That makes a total of about 90 farmers undertaking 260 trials which averages out at 3 trials per farmer. 90 farmers representing the entire UK’s farming practice along with different growing conditions and biodiversity is hardly a good scientific cross-section.
