New Projects in 2020

Projects in place for the 2020 field season include:

Pulses:

• Dry bean response to nitrogen fertilizer rate in dryland, solid-seeded production
• Enhanced fertilizer management for optimizing yield and protein in field pea

Oilseeds:

• Revisiting N Fertilizer Recommendations for SK: Are we measuring the right soil N pool?
• Demonstrating phosphorus fertilizer rates and placement for increased canola production crop safety and building soil phosphorus levels
• Camelina: A new crop options for NE Saskatchewan (post-poned to 2021)

Cereals:

• Are we accessing the right soil N pool for fertilizer recommendations in wheat?
• Can farmer-saved seed of wheat perform as well as certified seed?
• Increasing Wheat protein with Post-emergent applications of UAN vs. Dissolved Urea
• Improved integrated disease management for oats in Saskatchewan
• Barley Nitrogen Rates
• Malt Barley Agronomy
• Contrasting fungicide applications and genetic FHB resistance for enhanced yield and quality of barley
• Managing Canaryseed through agronomy
• FHB in multiple cereals

Mixed Crop:

• Oat/Pea intercrop demonstration
• Alternative cover crop options for establishing forage legumes for seed production
• Crop rotation benefits of annual forages preceeding spring cereals

Field Scale:

• An on-farm approach to evaluate the interaction of management practices and environment on FHB development in wheat

Forage Legumes:

• Tolerance of Established Red Clover to Valterra and Authority
• Forage Legume varieties for biomass yield
• Tolerance of Established Alsike Clover to Valterra and Authority

Forage Grasses:

• Forage grass varieties for biomass yield
• Seeding Perennial Ryegrass with LibertyLink Canola
• Tolerance and Efficacy of Engenia+MCPA in Timothy for Night flowering Catchfly control

All reports will be posted as soon as they are available.
