2. A paddock history for the last three (3) to five (5) years
3. Be happy to have one (1) or more of the following on your farm:
   • Commercial products such as insecticides, herbicide, biologicals
   • Genetically modified crops
   • Replicated trials (area not managed by farmer)
   • Demonstration trials (area managed by farmer with RP assistance)
   • Sample site (minimum disruption such as soil core, biomass measure, moisture probe or simple instrument install)- maintained by RP
   • Field day
   • Data access (from weather stations, paddock histories, yield data etc)
4. A willingness to sign a non disclosure agreement for possible commercial in confidence products. Please note that this would only be required for some trials and demonstrations
