Winter canola tour set at St. John

A winter canola tour stop is scheduled for next Wednesday, May 24, at 10 a.m. in St. John. The large-scale winter canola variety trials with funding provided by Viterra will be featured, so this is an opportunity to see variety performance in different environments.

Six different varieties of winter canola will be shown on the Ross Jordan farm which is located two miles west of St. John. Planted last September, the canola now stands at approximately six feet and is now all in bloom.

Karen Sowers will talk about canola research now underway at WSU....
