It takes years to research and develop new canola seed cultivars. After that, it takes logistically complicated steps to produce and deliver commercial seed that meets the specifications of individual farmers.
What combine settings are best for lower canola losses and higher productivity? It varies by machine and by conditions. Experts are here to help.
Canola yields faced challenges from 2017 to 2023, largely due to weather. But why is the plateau 40 to 41 bu./ac. when genetic potential for the crop is much higher? The answer is likely related to agronomy.
We still have a lot to learn about verticillium stripe in canola. To address some of the knowledge gaps, a recent project investigated the disease development, evaluated canola genotypes for resistance and examined its interactions with blackleg.
