Final Report: |
March 1997 |
Summary: |
A field research trial to evaluate the performance of five bolt-on side band openers in crop establishment and final yield and quality was conducted at 10 locations in Saskatchewan in 1995 and 1996. The results showed the Flexi-coil and Gen openers gave the best emergence results in canola. The other three openers showed reduced performance in seed/fertilizer separation, however, this did not translate into reduced yield. |
