Safety in connection with "re-entry" into fields at AGRO

AGRO's occupational health and safety committee (LAMU) has been working on putting focus on safe trafic in the field after spraying.

You will find the guidelines here.

The Good Plan – notification of tests/experiments in lab/field

Good collaboration between the student and the technicians (TAP) is very important, and therefore we have prepared The Good Plan which must always be followed in connection with lab- or field work. It is not possible to work in the labs or in the fields if The Good Plan has not been properly filled in. 

The Good Plan

Letter of Expectation - TAP supervisor to student

The student's supervisor is responsible for booking a meeting and convene supervisor, technician (TAP) supervisor, and the student.

Field rent

Field rent in 2026 is 6,16 DKK per m².

Field rent in 2025 is 5,75 DKK per m².

The field rent includes costs and depresiations:

  • Sowing seed
  • Fertilizer
  • Pesticides
  • Irrigation, if possible (but not the working hours for this)
  • Machinery
  • Small items such as markers etc.
  • Depreciation on equipment used in the experiments.

What is not included?

There is no salaries in the field rent. Therefore, all staffing for establishment, harvesting, sowing plots (requires extra hours), observations, irrigation, special treatments and other registrations in the field during the experiment.

Contact allways the driftslederen

When budgetting in applications with field experiments, it is allways a good idea to talk with the driftslederen on the location where your experiment is planned, to gain clarity on what is included and what requires extra staffing.
