How to use the Guide

The guide is laid out in four distinct sections:

  • Agronomy
  • Pest and disease
  • Harvest
  • Post-harvest

Access to each section can be gained by placing your cursor over the respective section headings at the top of the ‘home page’. This will reveal a drop down list, from which you can choose the chapter you wish to open.

Within each chapter, you will find hyperlinks to additional information of relevance to that chapter or hyperlinks to other related information in other parts of the guide.
