Canola seed yield loss if injury occurs at the ripening stage depends directly on the loss of branches, individual pods and seeds knocked out of pods. Severe hail losses have occurred in canola swaths. The Manitoba-North Dakota Zero Tillage Farmers Association are sponsoring their annual summer tour on Tuesday, June 27, 2000. Host at the research sites will be well known SDSU Agronomist Dr. Dwayne Beck. He also has some demonstrations on both dormant seeded canola and hard red spring wheat.
All times are central daylight savings time.
To ensure a seat on the bus you must reserve in advance. Following the tour, Bob's Steakhouse in Gettysburg, SD will be the final stop before returning to points of departure.
