Soybean acreage rises across Manitoba due to moisture and costs
Elmer Raskiw of Manitoba Agriculture notes soybeans will expand in eastern and southwest Manitoba driven by excess moisture and lower nitrogen costs. Early varieties NSC Warren and RR Roscoe remain common with Roundup Ready 2 genetics promising, while heat units limit emergence. Peas and lentils face declines in 2011, with some growers adopting canola stubble or 12 inch spacings to cope with moisture and lodging.
