Did you know that nearly half the cereal crop in the UK, covering some 20,000 hectares, comes from varieties bred at KWS, the plant breeding site at Thriplow? Now planning permission has been secured to erect a new glasshouse on the site, to support development of new strains of wheat and barley. The glasshouse will replace some polytunnels. Just the sort of new science industry that we need.You can now see more details of planning applications, including links to maps, at the Scambs website.
