Soil moisture meter to speed field readings gains fame

Barley Cultivation and Breeding Outlook in Western Canada

The piece assesses barley breeding, urging expansion of 2-rowed cultivator development to boost disease resistance amid a rich germplasm pool. It notes limited promise for 6-rowed lines, citing Argyle as a minor 2 percent yield gain over Bonanza with later maturity, as Manchurian germplasm has been exhaustively sampled and few advances are expected until new germplasm emerges.
