Crop Losses

Monday 26th June 2017

RAC undertook a forensic investigation into the cause of damage to a sugar beet crop for a UK-based Loss Adjuster. We examined the distribution of symptoms in the field and impacts on affected plants in order to narrow down necessary laboratory analyses for pesticide residues. We then interpreted the results of the analyses in order to confirm causation, which was verified using contractor spray records.
