2024 CARP submission deadline is not that far away

The Canola Council of Canada is now accepting letters of intent for the 2024 Canola Agronomic Research Program (CARP).

The goal of the program is to help canola farmers increase yield and profitability, while reducing production risks and enhancing sustainability with effective knowledge and technology transfer.
 
A list of research priorities can be found on the Alberta Canola, SaskCanola, and Manitoba Canola Growers websites.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, June 16, 2023, with notification and requests for full proposals going out to applicants in early September.

Understanding the Blackleg & Verticillium Connection Webinar

Video: Understanding the Blackleg & Verticillium Connection Webinar

This webinar will explore the emerging connection between blackleg and verticillium stripe in canola, two diseases increasingly shaping yield risk across the Prairies. Presented by Ian Epp of Sask Oilseeds, the session will unpack current research and field observations that highlight how blackleg infection may influence the development and severity of verticillium stripe later in the season.

You will gain insight into disease biology, environmental drivers, and the role of variety selection, rotation, and management decisions in reducing overall disease pressure. The webinar will also connect the dots between early-season disease management and long-term risk, helping growers and agronomists better anticipate challenges and adapt strategies for more resilient canola production.
