Increasing the number of pre-registration flax sites in Manitoba, will incresae testing of lines under Manitoba growing conditions. Read More

This project aims to begin rating commercialized Canadian varieties for competitiveness. In addition it will allow development of a methodology to take competitiveness testing forward into a framework such as the regional variety trials to continue rating of registered varieties… Read More

The proposed research is aimed at identifying germplasm lines and novel candidate genes/molecular markers that provide a unique opportunity for efficient and directed breeding of malting barley cultivars with optimum dormancy. Read More

This project would increase adoption of improved barley cultivars on farm and also may make PGR management practices more efficient. Read More

This study seeks to fill knowledge gaps on end-of-pipe treatment options for cold climates and undulating landscapes, specifically for saturated buffers, constructed wetlands and phosphorus removal structures. Additionally, the study seeks to demonstrate the practicality, affordability and effectiveness of these… Read More

This project aims to generate research-based information to support on-farm agronomic and farm management decisions by determining the effect of including soybean and field pea in Manitoba cropping systems on crop productivity and quality, diseases, soil health, nutrient cycling, and… Read More

This project seeks to address this current lack of information regarding leaf rust resistance in western Canadian winter wheat. The data from this project will be used in two types of analyses: (1) genome-wide association study (GWAS) and (2) genomic… Read More

Within the scope of this proposal, PAMI will simulate wheat in air seeders through the development of a coupled fluid-particle (CFD/DEM) model. This modeling approach connects the airflow patterns within the air seeder system to the movement of wheat particles… Read More

The purpose of this project is to use field trials in multiple locations across the Prairies to grow established and new Canadian malting barley varieties annually and to generate comprehensive and comparative data on barley quality, malting performance and malt… Read More
