The knowledge transfer organisation of East Malling Research
The EMR Association is a principle conduit for the dissemination of knowledge and information from East Malling Research.
The EMR Association is a subscription-based organisation, which allows members to remain at the forefront of perennial horticultural R&D and best practice. Two-way dialogue through personal contact with NIAB EMR’s scientists on Members’ Days and at other meetings, will speed up the process by which you can learn and adopt the results of research, keeping you abreast of new developments and opportunities.
Membership will benefit those interested in the food, environment and land-based industries, particularly the soft fruit, tree fruit, hardy nursery stock and other non-food crop sectors. The Association’s Membership currently has a constituency that includes horticultural advisors, growers, land owners, food producers, retailers, researchers and agricultural manufacturers.
