In this episode of the Growing Series podcast, Saskatchewan-based Cargill agronomist Janel Delage and Shaun Haney from RealAgriculture.com get down to brass tacks on why straight-cutting canola can be a great time-saver on the farm.

From the pros and cons of swathing vs. straight cutting, to field selection, and on to the importance of hybrid choice, this podcast covers all the are-you-ready-for-this bases.

Learn how best to dip your toe in the straight-cutting canola pool, why planning for harvest starts at seeding, why it’s not an all or nothing choice, and the answer to the all-important answer ‘when do I know my canola is ready to cut?’ in the audio here:
