Alternative date seeding of spring canola

Description

Seeding canola very early in the spring or before fall freeze up has several advantages. It spreads out farming operations. It may also minimize the impact of devastating diseases, insects, frosts or periods of extreme heat. These seeding dates also advance maturity and harvest. Alternative date seeding, however, requires careful management. Studies and practical experience on these seeding concepts have led to the recommendations in this fact sheet.
