Seed quality and treatments raise Manitoba crop yields
Manitoba tests show certified seed boosts yields by about 1.1 bushels per acre in wheat, with barley in Saskatchewan gaining roughly three bushels. Seed analysis certificates, color, weight and size matter, while weathered seed loses vigor. Seed treatment can reduce disease losses in canola wheat and barley, with blackleg posing rising risk. fungicides like Vitavax Rovral and Premier are advised, though seed treatment won’t stop smut or head blight in some crops.
