Effect of spring cereal seeding rate on its yield potential (2021)
Crop Types: Barley, Cereals, Oats, Wheat
Centre(s): PESAI
- Determine if target plant stand recommendations should be adjusted for spring wheat, oats, and barley.
- Determine if optimum plant stands differ for individual varieties.
- Assist producers with determining target plant stand and seeding rate for newer spring cereal varieties.
Effect of tile drainage on soil temperature in heavy clay soils (2021)
Crop Types:
Centre(s): PESAI
To assess the impact of tile spacing’s on soil temperature at two soil depths: 1 inch (seeding depth) and 6 inch (rooting depth) in spring.
Evaluating silage corn varieties in Interlake region (2021)
Crop Types: Cereals, Corn
Centre(s): PESAI
To evaluate the yield potential of silage corn varieties in Interlake region.
Flooding effects on canola growth and yield (2021)
Crop Types: Canola, Oilseeds
Centre(s): PESAI
- To quantify the tolerance and recovery of current cultivars of canola to excess moisture stress, with the intention of identifying a cultivar that has improved tolerance.
- To find out how timing of excess moisture stress affects yield.
Flooding effects on wheat growth and yield (2021)
Crop Types: Cereals, Wheat
Centre(s): PESAI
To evaluate the effects of early and late flooding on four commonly grown wheat varieties in Manitoba. Plots were also grown under no flooding conditions as control for comparisons.
Foliar Strategies to Generate Severe Iron Deficiency Chlorosis (IDC) in Small Plot Research Trials (2021)
Crop Types: Forages, Oilseeds, Soybean
Centre(s): PESAI
- To evaluate a method of forcing symptoms of iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) in soybean research trials across the Interlake and Red River Valley regions on Manitoba.
- In addition, to directly compare the yield response of IDC resistant and IDC susceptible cultivars (grouped) in response to the applied forcing treatment. IDC is a major stress factor that severely reduces the yield potential of soybeans grown upon calcareous, high pH soils in Manitoba.
Fruit Demonstration (2021)
Crop Types: Fruit
Centre(s): PCDF
To demonstrate varieties of fruits being developed by the University of Saskatchewan.
Hemp-Cereal Silage (2021)
Crop Types: Cereals, Hemp
Centre(s): PCDF
To evaluate intercrop mixes with hemp for silage production.
Linseed Flax variety evaluation (2021)
Crop Types: Flax, Oilseeds
Centre(s): PESAI
To compare yield and other growth parameters of newly registered flax cultivars (SVPG entries) and experimental lines (FP entries) from University of Saskatchewan, Crop development Centre flax breeding program with check flax varieties.
Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation trials (MCVET) (2021)
Crop Types: Barley, Cereals, Corn, Flax, Forages, Oats, Oilseeds, Peas, Pulses, Rye, Soybean, Wheat, Winter Wheat
Centre(s): PESAI
The purpose of the MCVET trials is to grow both familiar (check varieties) and new varieties side by side in a replicated manner in order to compare and contrast various variety characteristics such as yield, maturity, protein content, disease tolerance, and many others.
