Date:02-06-2009

Agrochemical company Dow AgroSciences is to establish a new UK research base on the Warwick Enterprise Park at Wellesbourne.

The company’s existing research farm at Marcham in Oxfordshire will be closed down.

Located alongside the Warwick HRI site, the new Dow AgroSciences operation will have access to a wide range of research facilities including field trials grounds, glasshouses, polytunnels, laboratories and controlled environment chambers.

According to Anne Thompson, Northern Europe R&D deader for Dow AgroSciences the new facilities will considerably enhance Dow’s UK research capabilities.
