Significant events
- “Financial results in 2024 affected by weather and economic factors. Persistent wet weather restricted drilling, reducing winter wheat area. Decline in oilseed rape area due to loss of seed treatments. Significant price deflation across arable inputs had adverse impact on gross margins, compounded by high overhead inflation.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
