This event is part of a series that we regularly organise at Universities & Colleges throughout the UK to give students and experienced professionals knowledge & practical experience of these products – much better than just reading about them! The session will commence at 10am and be finished by lunchtime and is free of charge to attend.

The itinerary is as follows:

1. Introduction to Sorbus – who we are & what we do.
2. IML microdrills for decay/defect assessment in trees and other wooden structures; focussing on the latest Resi-PD microdrill. This includes describing the PD in detail, how it is used and how to interpret the results.
3. The PICUS range of tree assessment devices including the market leading PICUS 3 sonic tomography system, the TreeTronic 3 ERT (Electrical Resistance Tomography) system, TreeQinetic Tree Pulling and the latest TMS 3 (TreeMotion Sensors). Full descriptions are given along with methodology and result interpretation.
4. PICUS Tension Drought Stress Monitors for trees/plants – The relevant measurement principle of the Tension is the soil water tension, expressed as a pF value, which indicates the force with which the water is held in the pores of the soil, i.e., how much force trees/plants must exert to get to the water.
5. NEW! – SoilMania/TreeMania sensor systems for continuous monitoring of soils (moisture, temperature, pH, oxygen, electrical conductivity) and trees (growth, sap flow etc) – SAVE TREES WITH SENSORS!
6. BITE Tree Infusion system to stimulate trees that are under stress or in decline using the patented EnerBite sap compatible treatment – description, methodology, benefits.
7. MycoSolutions Range including Avengelus Trichoderma  soil enhancer/fertiliser, Tree Balm wound treatment & Ascovert organic liquid extract to support plants/trees during abiotic stress.
8. BioSecurity – Awareness & importance of taking adequate measures to help prevent the spread of pests & diseases. Description of the Sorbus BioSecurity kits/accessories, Cleankill & Propellar disinfectants.
9. Pocket Diagnostic Lateral Flow Test Kits for the rapid & early in field identification of Phytophthora & other pathogens in trees, plants etc
10. Haglof Survey Devices  for height /distance measurement and much more
11. Practical session including demonstrations of various pieces of equipment where those attending are encouraged to get ‘hands on’ experience.
