Newly Licensed Rapeseed Arrives for Manitoba Farmers Next Spring

Manitoba agriculture officials say certified Midas and Torch rapeseed will be available to growers next spring. About 13,000 pounds of foundation Midas will be distributed to established Manitoba growers in 1973, with expansion planned as seed multiplication continues in California and within Manitoba. Torch seed will be multiplied locally, with limited amounts offered for test crushes by processors and for contract growers. Officials anticipate Midas will replace Zephyr Oro and Target, while Torch may replace Echo and Span across the west, pending winter crop success.

Japan Looks to Canada For Rapeseed Supplies

A Canadian rapeseed buyer and expert panel told the Rapeseed Association of Canada that Japan will keep importing more Canadian rapeseed if supply remains stable and price reasonable. Dr. H Nakamura forecast rapeseed imports in 1973 near 30 million bushels as Japan shifts from sunflowers and safflowers, with rapeseed meat expanding in livestock feed and as fertilizer. A. M. Runciman warned that sowing fewer than 3.3 million acres could threaten next year’s supply, noting exports near 60 million bushels and domestic use around 14 million.
