Winter Crops Boost Seed Supply Across Borders
Agriculture Canada researchers grow buckwheat in Florida and rapeseed in California to accelerate new variety releases. Two crop specialists travel annually to U S stations to multiply seed from about 36 Canadian breeders, enabling earlier distribution. The winter increase program produced rust resistant flax seed in 1973-74, delivering 1,500 bushels for release in 1974 and speeding defense against prairie rust races.
