Manitoba Selkirk wheat linked to higher protein in 1955
A Grable Grain Company report notes Manitoba wheat with Selkirk variety showed higher protein levels in 1955, averaging 13.6 percent versus Saskatchewan 13.0 and Alberta 12.7. Weather may explain the spike, with potential implications if Selkirk remains dominant. The variety now accounts for about two thirds of Manitoba acreage and part of Saskatchewan, likely peaking around 80 to 100 million bushels annually, largely in rust-protected zones.
