The HGCA Recommended Lists 2013/14 are managed by a project consortium of BSPB, HGCA, MAGB and nabim. Funding for the Recommended List trials and tests is provided by HGCA but the production of the Lists would be impossible without the contribution and support of the industry. For specific RL enquiries call 024 7647 8746 or email rl@hgca.ahdb.org.uk
Preliminary data
The selection of new varieties to promote into HGCA Recommended List trials is made on the basis of preliminary data collected during National List and other trials and tests and these data also make a major contribution to the variety means presented in the RL tables. Acknowledgement is made to Defra and the devolved governments as well as BSPB for the use of these data.

Processors
HGCA is grateful for the valuable contributions made by member companies of BBPA, BOBMA, MAGB and SWA who conduct milling, malting, brewing and distilling tests both at the preliminary and Recommended Lists stages.
