This project will compare solid-seeded oilseed sunflower to row-planted oilseed sunflower over two field seasons. Different plant populations will be targeted since the theory is an air seeder lacks the advantage of singulation, would be inefficient at low plant populations… Read More

Row spacing is an important agronomic management practice for corn production. Although the standard row spacing for corn is 30 inches, studies in the US and Ontario have identified corn hybrid responses to narrow, wide, and twined rows. Given the… Read More

The goal of this program is to develop agronomic best management practices and improve agrometerological tools for successful corn production in Manitoba. This multi-disciplinary program will engage a network of scientists at the University of Manitoba to work on corn… Read More

It is important to evaluate optimal corn row spacing in Manitoba using shorter season hybrids and inbreds under development. Read More
