Stephen Jacob, BASIS CEO, explains that members should visit stand 172 and present their membership card to collect two points for attendance each day.

“To gain a further four points per day, members can participate in the Knowledge Trail. To do this, pick up a stamp card from the BASIS stand, and visit participating exhibitor stands to complete an activity,” he says.
“Once completed, the card will be stamped up to four times. This should be handed back into the BASIS stand to receive points accordingly.”

BASIS quality of soils course

As well as being on-hand to support members collecting points, the BASIS team will be showcasing the range of courses on offer, including its latest offering, ‘Quality of Soils’.

“This qualification builds on the success of existing BASIS modules as well as the knowledge from the ‘Foundation in Soils’ course,” explains Stephen.

“It gives further insight into improving the resilience of farming systems through increased understanding of the soil ecosystem,” says Stephen.
