The Crest Group is made up of fourteen independent agronomy specialists covering the whole of the UK and employing over seventy agronomists. The combined turnover of Crest members is £28 million.

Whilst each Crest member operates as a separate business, all companies in the Group work towards common goals and share ideas, experience and expertise to provide farmers with a range of services that help tackle the key issues facing agriculture today.

The Crest approach is based on building long-term partnership relationships with farmers through the implementation of our Integrated Crop Management System, a method of working that balances the need to run a profitable business with environmental responsibility.  It involves a wide range of practices developed to deal with matters such as improving energy efficiency, reducing pollution and minimising waste.


Access to the latest developments

The Crest Group deals with all of the major crop protection companies. Through them, we have access to the very latest crop science developments.  

We are also completely abreast with bio-pesticide developments and can advise on how these can successfully attack weeds such as Black Grass, which have become resistant to conventional pesticides.

All Crest purchases are managed by one central co-ordinator.
