Wild oats and green foxtail are two of the most troublesome annual weeds encountered by canola producers in western Canada. Several postemergence herbicides are available that will control these two weeds.
Researchers conducted trials throughout the Prairie provinces from 1989 through 1991 to determine the relationship of canola yield and quality to temperature and precipitation received during the growing season.
In the early 1990s, canola was typically produced using soil incorporated herbicides and extensive seedbed preparation, often followed by post seeding packer/harrow operations.
