Straight-cutting canola without losing significant yield thanks to pod-shatter resistance traits means that farmers have a full range of options when managing canola harvest.
The decision on swathing or not isn’t always an easy one, but many farmers use swathing as a harvest timing management tool. But when is the right time? What happens if you wait? Where does a pre-harvest pass of herbicide or desiccant fit? What about really thin — or really full — crops?
For that discussion, this episode of The Agronomists features Harold Brown of BASF, and Ian Epp, agronomist with the Canola Council of Canada, to discuss the swath timing decision and much more!
