Cereal Killers covers the pests, diseases, and weeds that try to kill arable crops. Each week we do a deep dive on one challenge facing arable farmers. Hopefully revealing some new insights to help you fight these pernicious beasts, bugs and pathogens! If you are a farmer or agronomist, we would love to interview you on the podcast.

    Are Your Microbes Dead? Free Lab Testing for Regenerative Farmers
    May 21 2026

    Dr. Russell Sharp explains why his company doesn’t sell microbial products, citing viability, supply-chain dilution and poor-quality suppliers that damage the sector’s reputation.

    He announces a free service for regenerative farmers: send recent microbial products to Eutrema for microscopy, staining and culture tests to verify identity, viability and concentration, with results shared to help clean up the market.

    Perennial Grains: Could Kernza Replace Wheat?
    Dec 17 2025
    Dr. Russell Sharp explores perennial arable crops such as kernza, perennial rice, and sorghum; discussing their advantages (reduced tillage, deeper roots, soil health), current commercial status, and practical challenges such as lower yields, pests, and multi-year management. The episode also covers breeding and gene-editing targets to improve traits, global research efforts, and the potential for growing perennials in hydroponic systems and niche value markets. https://eutrema.co.uk/ Norman Borlaug — CIMMYT Sanjaya Rajaram — CIMMYT Surinder Vasal — CIMMYT Ravi Prakash Singh — CIMMYT Neelamraju G.
