This trial looked at plant density in low rainfall canola.

This trial investigated options for improving production from retained, hybrid and open pollinated canola seed; grading harder, buying new seed, increasing the seed rate, mixing retained and new se

Most canola had acceptable losses prior to harvest, even with delayed harvest. The greatest proportion of losses occurred at harvest.

The Tactical break crop agronomy project has many canola agronomy trials each year.

In a 2014 trial, Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD) concluded that it was not worth re-seeding canola.

Yield response to applied nitrogen (N) in lower rainfall areas is often relatively low and may also reduce oil.

The Podguard line AN14R9012 appears to be a viable option for direct harvesting and delayed harvesting of canola.

In the trial series at Grass Patch, Ballidu, Merredin and Holt Rock, the highest grain yields, oil and gross margins were from the open pollinated variety, so growers should continue to use open po

In general, as long as nitrogen is applied within eight weeks of sowing, there is no yield penalty.

In general, as long as nitrogen is applied within eight weeks of sowing, there is no yield penalty.

Previous experience with canola has found there is no yield penalty if nitrogen is applied within eight weeks of sowing and most farmers aim to apply nitrogen within this timeframe.

Canola is now being grown in low rainfall areas. Primarily farmers choose open pollinated TT varieties.
