Listen: Pulse crop breeding in Saskatchewan is heading in a new direction

A long-term relationship with the University of Saskatchewan Crop Development Centre ended and it was announced last summer that Saskatchewan Pulse Growers will partner with LimaGrain, the fourth largest seed company in the world.

Limagrain Head of Cereal and Pulse Research Jason Ranheimer shares with Alice McFarlane with Ag Access some of the work that was done in the first year of the partnership.

Alice McFarlane is the Agriculture Information Director for 105 CJVR and Saskatchewan’s BeachRadioSK.ca in Melfort, Sask.

Tune in to Ag Access weekdays during the noon hour on 105 CJVR.

Video: InsidePTI | Nemasphere Soybeans Study



What if you could better protect your soybean yield from a threat you may never see above ground?

Every year, we try to bring around 10 new trials to the PTI Farm, and a study of Nemasphere Soybeans is one of the new trials we've introduced this year. This new development from BASF is intended to provide an additional layer of protection against soybean cyst nematode (SCN).

We're excited to continue to monitor this, and we hope it's another tool growers can use to protect yield potential in the years ahead.
