A reason for every answer

You see why the right answer is right and why each wrong one is wrong, in plain English, not legal language.

Protecting the environment

You are planning a spray job. Which of these should you recognise as a sensitive area for wildlife and protect from direct spray and drift?

Not this one: A concrete hardstanding

Correct: A hedge along the field edge. Hedges, ditches, ponds, wetlands and water margins, rough grazing and scrub woodland are habitats you should recognise, assess and protect, possibly with untreated buffer zones. A hardstanding, track or gateway is not on that list.

A timed mock exam

Modelled on the published test specification, so the real thing feels familiar.

  • 30 questions in 60 minutes
  • 70% to pass (21 of 30)
  • At least one mark in every topic
  • Extra time or no timer if you need it
  • Practise by topic

    Work on one topic at a time, with no clock, and pick up where you left off.

  • Weak topics

    The app builds a round from the topics you get wrong most often.

  • Made for your phone

    Big buttons, clear text and one question at a time. Revise in short bursts.
