Corn The Crop to Watch in Manitoba Future
Dr Charles Framingham of the University of Manitoba says corn will become a major Manitoba crop in the coming decade with faster maturing varieties making grain and silage corn economically viable. A 1977 study shows grain corn net $50 per hectare, vs $32 for wheat and $89 for rapeseed, with heat unit needs shaping promising areas around Pembina triangle Portage la Prairie Carberry Glenboro Shilo and Souris. Silage corn needs fewer heat units and broader soils. Farmers face equipment costs and weed management needs. dried grain corn is typically needed. Grain corn markets include distilleries and livestock feed, linking profitability to livestock demand and feed prices. The best expansion areas have suitable soils and heat units. farmers should consider corn investments.
