Access to Data from Rothamsted's Long-term Experiments on crops, soils and associated ecosystems
e-RA provides a permanent managed database for secure storage of data from Rothamsted's Long-term Experiments, the oldest, continuous agronomic experiments in the world. Selected data from long term experiments are being made freely available to the scientific community, as prepared summaries of commonly requested data. This recognises the national and international importance of the data.
