President’s Message

Minister’s Message As Minister for Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives (MAFRI), I am pleased to continue the long-standing relationship with the Manitoba Seed Growers’ Association and the Manitoba Cooperator in the production of the 2011 edition of Seed Manitoba. This publication offers Manitoba producers a valuable guide when making their variety selections and planting decisions. Seed Manitoba offers information on what producers can expect in the performance of cereals, oilseeds, specialty crops and forages and it can help them make informed choices in optimizing their profitability. MAFRI staff are pleased to continue to support this publication and the comprehensive information it provides. The Manitoba’s Crop Variety Evaluation Team, including MAFRI staff, have coordinated over one hundred trials in various locations around the province. This has been done to seek every assurance that crop performance has been tested in all regions and under diverse environmental conditions. Seed Manitoba represents a spirit of cooperation, drawing from Manitoba’s agri-business community, commodity groups and government to maximize producers’ success. I offer my thanks and congratulations to everyone who has participated in this process and in this publication.

Stan Struthers Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives

The 2010 growing season certainly provided an opportunity to highlight the differences between crop varieties. In most areas, conditions were ideal for the development of crop diseases and in many cases the latest varieties with enhanced disease resistance came through with improved performance as can be seen in the data in this year’s Seed Manitoba. It is an exciting time in terms of new variety releases. Cereal breeding programs are turning out new varieties of spring and winter wheat, oats and barley that offer a better fit for our unique climate in the scope of Western Canadian production. Advances in soybean breeding are making this crop a permanent and expanding fixture in the crop mix in many areas and new variety offerings in edible beans and peas will ensure our competitiveness in these markets. As you use this guide to decide which varieties are right for your operation remember that your local seed producer can often provide added insight to how new varieties compare having grown them alongside the established varieties in the years of seed increase leading up to commercial release. The Manitoba Seed Growers’ Association is proud to be a part of the MCVET team as Seed Manitoba continues to provide a valuable resource for producers to analyze variety attributes and make the right selection for their operations by offering the most complete set of independent crop testing data available. This publication would not be possible without great support from Manitoba Agriculture Food and Rural Initiatives, the Manitoba Co-Operator, generous sponsors, and the many trial site partners. The Manitoba Seed Growers’ Association wishes you a productive season in 2011.

Welcome to Seed Manitoba 2011, the Variety Selection and Growers Source Guide, compliments of Manitoba Agriculture, Food & Rural Initiatives, the Manitoba Seed Grower’s Association and the Manitoba Cooperator. Seed Manitoba is the place where Manitoba farmers start when selecting a variety and evaluating the new varieties coming soon to the marketplace.

lected at various sites across Manitoba. However, farmers receive numerous publications detailing variety performance information, in addition to Seed Manitoba, which can make variety selection seem like a daunting task. Each source or type of information has its pros and cons but when used together can help farmers make the best variety selection for their farm.

Rain, Rain Go Away The 2010 growing season was another challenging one for many farmers. The season started earlier than normal with the seeding of cereal crops in mid-April. However, precipitation started in May and continued through the season, resulting in excessive moisture delaying and/or preventing seeding, as well as impacting plant stands and crop development. The frequent rainfall through the summer also promoted conditions that favored disease development in many areas of the province. And with rains continuing well into September, harvest operations were affected impacting final yields and quality. Much like what Manitoba farmers saw in their own fields, many of the variety trials across the province showed variability in yields and quality as a result of the excessive moisture all year. Fortunately, with above normal temperatures and drier conditions prevailing in October, and through the hard work of the site contractors, most sites were harvested and data approved for publication. For 2010, detailed quality data will be available in the Web Exclusive section at www.seedmb.ca. Seed quality information for soybeans, edible beans and sunflowers will be released in weekly intervals starting January 2011.

New Features There are some new features and improvements that can be seen as you read through Seed Manitoba 2011. In the Cereal Crops section, the 5-point scale for disease resistance ratings has changed from Very Good (VG), Good (G), Fair (F), Poor (P) and Very Poor (VP) to the ratings of Resistant (R), Moderately Resistant (MR), Intermediate (I), Moderately Susceptible (MS) and Susceptible (S) which are used by the Disease Evaluation Team of the Prairie Grain Development Committee. In the Oilseed Crops section, with the loss of the 2010 Prairie Canola Variety Trials (PCVT), staff with MAFRI and the Manitoba Seed Growers Association proposed using the Western Canadian Canola/ Rapeseed Recommending Committee (WCC/ RRC) canola variety registration trial data as an interim solution. The result was third

party comparative information for new varieties to provide farmers with another source of information to help with their canola variety decisions. Accompanying the table of multi-year individual variety performance is an explanation of where this unique set of information is coming from and how to use it. Other changes include: for spring and durum wheat seed size was removed, spike awn information was added, and height was converted to numeric values (plus/minus of the check AC Barrie), for winter wheat disease resistance ratings for bunt was added, and for peas seed size has been changed from letter size (small/medium/large) to numeric (grams per 1000 seeds). As well, take some time to read the comments section above the variety description table as it contains pertinent information specific to each crop type.

Questions? Any questions related to the data found in Seed Manitoba 2011 can be directed to the Commodity Editors: Pam de Rocquigny for cereal crops, plus grain and silage corn, Anastasia Kubinec for oilseed crops (canola, flax, sunflowers, soybeans) and pulse crops (lentils, peas, fababeans, field beans) and Glenn Friesen for annual and perennial forages. Thank you to Patti Cuthbert, MCVET Coordinator, and Craig Linde who supplied 2010 data from MCVET. Thank you as well to the commodity organizations and those groups that support locally organized variety trials for donating data for inclusion into the guide. It is our hope you find the information in Seed Manitoba 2011 of great benefit as you make variety decisions in the coming months.

DECEMBER 2010

New disease rating scale puts us all on the same page by Allan Dawson, Co-operator staff

Seed Manitoba readers will see a different scale for rating cereal diseases in the 2011 edition, which should result in less confusion and more consistency industry officials say. The old five-point scale of VG (very good), G (good), F (fair), P (poor) and VP (very poor) is gone. It has been replaced by the five-point scale used by the Prairie Grain Development Committee, which is as follows: R (resistant), MR (moderately resistant), I (intermediate), MS (moderately susceptible) and S (susceptible). Although the terminology is different, the two scales match up. For example, VG was equivalent to R and VP was the same as S. Traditionally plant pathologists have used the R, MR, I, MS and S scale and now Seed Manitoba will be on the same page.

“You can translate between English and French but sometimes things get lost in translation — now we’re talking one language.” Brent McCallum

Pam de Rocquigny, provincial cereals specialist with Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives (MAFRI), said she was prompted to consider the change in February after Agriculture and Agri-Food plant pathologist Andy Tekauz asked the question. De Rocquigny polled other plant pathologists and they agreed it would be better to use one rating system. Now there’s no need to translate the ratings from the PGDC. That means they can be incorporated into Seed Manitoba more efficiently, Tekauz said. “The research community prefers to use this other rating system so there’s no reason producers themselves would not understand or appreciate those same terms,” he said. 10

DECEMBER 2010

Seed Manitoba has adapted the same disease rating scale for cereals as the Prairie Grain Development Committee Old Disease Rating VG G F P VP

(very good) (good) (fair) (poor) (very poor)

In fact, it should be less confusing because farmers will often hear researchers discuss varieties using their scale only to find different terms used in Seed Manitoba. Brent McCallum, who is also a plant pathologist with Agriculture Canada, said changing the rating system will take a bit of time for farmers to get used to, but it makes for a more seamless system. “It’s like translating between two languages,” he said. “You can translate between English and French but sometimes things get lost in translation now we’re talking one language. “I think it’s going to be good in the long run.” So, what does resistance mean? It depends which crop you’re looking at in Seed Manitoba. For cereals, a crop with an R rating means it can tolerate pressure from a specific disease. It might not even show signs of infection, Tekauz said. “Resistance in this case means it’s pretty darn good and you shouldn’t need to treat it with anything as far as fungicides,” he said. Treating a barley rated R for loose smut, for example, would be a waste of money, he added. An R rating means something different for blackleg in canola, said Anastasia Kubinec, MAFRI’s provincial oilseed specialist. Varieties are only assessed for one strain of blackleg, PG2. A canola with a MR or even an R rating might still be infected by another strain of blackleg, which is less common, but which shows up in pockets throughout the West. “My advice to the farmer is always choose that R variety,” Kubinec said. “If you’re still seeing blackleg you may have other strains and maybe it’s time to increase your rotation because the

New Disease Rating R (resistant) MR (moderately resistant) I (intermediate) MS (moderately susceptible) S (susceptible)

closer you grow canola together, you’re selecting for those strains. “With flax if you have an R for rust it is immune, there is zero rust. But with blackleg it’s a resistance thing, not immunity.” While the blackleg ratings for canola varieties rarely change from year-to-year, the same isn’t true in cereals, especially wheats. As new disease data is collected and assessed, changes, if warranted, are made to disease ratings and published in Seed Manitoba. For example, into the 2008 Seed Manitoba the fusarium head blight rating for CDC GO was dropped to P (poor) from F (fair) after the variety was hammered by fusarium that growing season. (Under the new scale the rating dropped to MS from I.) In the 2011 edition, two Canada Western Red Spring wheats have had their rating to fusarium increased. CDC Imagine is now rated as MS (moderately susceptible), instead of S (susceptible.) And Unity VB is rated as I (intermediate), instead of MS (moderately susceptible). Under the old scale I was equivalent to F (fair) — the same rating as AC Barrie, KANE and Glenn. A lot of work goes into collecting and analyzing the reams of data published in Seed Manitoba, Tekauz said. “The point I want to make is producers should really avail themselves of the information in there because it is good information. I sometimes feel the seed guide is not used enough and not regarded as a valuable enough document and I think it really is.”

Dealing with

Data Overload

It’s late fall/early winter. This year’s crops are off and plans are being finalized for 2011. Every day a new flyer gets stacked on your kitchen table showing a fantastic new variety in your local strip trial. An ad catches your attention in the paper of another trial and then there are all those numbers you’ve been looking through in Seed Manitoba 2011….. it’s enough to make your head spin! How do they get all those numbers? And how can you use them to make the right choice? Here are three things to keep in mind: All trial data is useful. The numbers from the trials that actually make it to Seed Manitoba or your favorite seed company’s marketing material are legitimate. The varieties actually did perform that way at that one location. Instead of getting caught up on the big yield numbers, look at the differences between numbers and compare for different locations. If you convert to percentages, yields will even out and then you can consider the other agronomic traits that are important - like disease resistance, maturity, lodging tolerance (shown in the Seed Manitoba guide), and contract pricing (talk to your local grain buyer or elevator). If you look at the data from the “Ultimate Canola Challenge 2010”, 4567 yielded the most but 8910 put the most dollars in your pocket with combination of yield and specialty oil premium. 1234 didn’t yield the most, but it wasn’t late or too tall. It maybe easier to manage in swathing/harvest and being earlier it allows time

for winter wheat to be seeded into the stubble. These are all things to consider – money in your pocket, management, benefits for the following crop. Be cautious with single year or single location data. Using only one trial from one year to make all of your decisions may not work, if next year is different from this year. An earlier frost may burn you if you are pushing maturity in canola, soybean and corn even though the later maturing varieties typically yield more. Or an oat variety that excelled in a year without rust pressure may be the worst performer the year rust hits early. Farmers should select those varieties that perform well not only in their area but across locations and years. This will increase the likelihood that given next years environment (which cannot be controlled) the variety selected will perform well. Small plot or strip trial data, no need to choose sides — they can work together! Both small plot and larger scale (strip trial or demo trials) have merits and drawbacks, but used

together can really make sense of what variety will work for your area. • Small plot — data is from a small area (2 x 6 meter plots typically) where a large number of varieties are tested in the same trial. Benefits are that numerous varieties can be tested against each other (think 15-25 varieties at a time) and that same set of varieties from the same seed source can be tested in multiple locations. Because of the small plot size and total trial area, variability in land, fertility, weeds can be minimized. Drawbacks are there is no variability in the management – it is all the same. Same fertility, herbicide, fungicide, swathing timing, etc. even though some varieties may be earlier/later maturing or have herbicide tolerance traits. • Large plot — data from larger area like a commercial seeder width by a half mile. Benefits are they are more reflective of real life – they spray herbicides according to herbicide tolerance traits, are supposed to be swathed or combined at the proper maturity timing, managed with ‘farmsize’ equipment and reflect the tillage practices

of the area. Drawbacks – much more variability within land and potentially between plots. Are the differences really between varieties, or was there a gradient of better/worse land in the field or a fertilizer over-lap? As well, the number of varieties being tested at one site can become limited as size becomes restrictive. If testing the same set of varieties between locations, the seed lots can differ which can confound the yield results from the trials. • Working together for success — The trend now is for seed companies, retailers or grain companies to run and put the most merit in demonstrations trials. Both the seed company/ retailer and the farmer take ownership in the trials and really do reflect the production practices seedmb.ca is sponsored exclusively by

and the performance in that year. But not the same farmer, production practices or varieties are used every year. That data from 2010 may have a “shelf-life” of only for the year it was planted. That is where small plot data comes in. Look at the “Ultimate Canola Challenge” demo trial and the “2011 Canola Variety Performance” MCVET canola trial. You liked the money from ‘8910’, the bragging rights for the yield on ‘4567’ and the overall package of ‘1234’, but 2010 was a funny year – are you confident in varieties only tested in 2010. What if 2011 is like 2006 – hot and dry? Before making a final decision, you want to know how it did elsewhere (see ‘2011 Canola Variety Performance’). From the multiple site locations you can see there is variability in yield from loca-

tion to location and with how the variety performs. 4567 looks even better in small plot data overall, but was only tested at 8 sites = 1 year. At Thornhill (which is the closet location to where you farm) it didn’t look as good and 8910 really shone. At the end of day, it is still your choice and choosing the best variety or varieties for your farming operation can greatly enhance crop production profitability. If you are interested in changing your ‘old faithful’ to something new and exciting, don’t get too overwhelmed by the numbers. Go with the traits you know – good disease resistance, maturity. Then, what will work the best for your farm management and put the most money in your pocket from the combination of yield, premiums and set-up for the 2012 crop.

Variety Description Key

A grey “CHECK CHARACTERISTICS” box has been placed at the bottom of each table to display the long term yield, # of site years, % protein and any other check attributes.

Except for the long term average yield and protein data, variety description information was obtained from the Co-operative Registration Trials.

Protein data is from MCVET plots harvested from 2002 to 2010. Actual protein will depend on seasonal growing conditions and fertility levels. “Resistance Level” Disease ratings: R = Resistant; MR = Moderately Resistant; I = Intermediate; MS = Moderately Susceptible; S = Susceptible; “ — “ = not available “Resistance Level” Lodging ratings: VG = Very Good; G = Good; F = Fair, P = Poor; VP = Very Poor; “ — “ = not available. Site Years Tested is the cumulative number of locations over the years that a variety has been tested against the check. The more site years the more dependable the data. π Indicates a variety that is protected by Plant Breeder’s Rights or a variety where protection has been applied for but not yet granted at time of printing.

Key to 2010 Yield and Protein Tables Yields derived over 2 or more growing seasons are the best indicator of variety performance. For new varieties, “2010 Average Yield” over all sites is more reliable than data from a single location. Use single site year data with caution. Data collected from Portage is not presented as an individual site but data is included in the 2010 Average Yield and Protein columns in the Yield and Protein Comparisons tables and the long term yield and protein columns in the Variety Description table. CV% = Coefficient of Variation. A measure of random variation in a trial. A low CV is desirable. LSD% = Least Significant Difference. Varieties must differ by the LSD% to be considered significantly different from one another. Sign Diff = Significant Difference. Indicates if a real difference exists between varieties at an individual site.

All cultivars are susceptible to new race QCCJ, however to date this has not caused widespread damage. Early seeding will generally reduce the likelihood of severe infection. 3 Fusarium head blight (FHB) infection is highly influenced by environment and heading date. Under high levels of the disease all varieties will sustain damage. Hulless barley typically has reduced levels of DON when compared to regular barley with similar levels of disease.

Celebration, CDC Clyde, CDC Kamsack, and CDC Mayfair are not yet being grown for the commercial market. Production is limited to quantities required for testing and market development. Please talk to local malting company selector in regards to demand for CDC Battleford, Lacey and Robust.

The CMBTC recommends the use of Certified seed to ensure varietal purity and to increase opportunity for selection. Domestic as used in this publication, means barley selected for domestic processing into malt to supply domestic brewers as well as for malt destined for export. Export is that malting barley designated for markets outside of Canada including the U.S., shipped as unmalted grain. The following companies have pedigreed seed distribution rights for those varieties that are footnoted: 1-Viterra; 2-BARI-Canada; 3-FP Genetics; 4-SeCan; 5-Canterra Seeds

Comments: Forage yields of some varieties are listed in the Forage Crops section. Producers are encouraged to check the “Preferred” or “Approved” lists available at most mills if they selecting varieties for the milling market. These lists are updated as new genetics become available. The race horse industry prefers white-hulled varieties. HiFiπ is exceptionally high in beta-glucan fibre and is available for contract identity preserved production. Crown rust races capable of attacking varieties with the Pc68 gene are now prevalent in Manitoba, this has resulted in varieties like AC Assiniboiaπ, Furlongπ, Pinnacleπ and others being redefined as Susceptible (S) for Crown Rust resistance. Early seeding may reduce the likelihood of severe infection.

HULLESS OATS C

Comments: Hulless oats were last tested in 2008.

GEHLπ is the first bald hulless oat variety as it does not have surface-borne hairs (trichomes). GEHLπ also has improved hulless expression.

Hulless oats are a specialty product for which a market should be ensured prior to planting.

Crown rust races capable of attacking varieties with the Pc68 gene are now prevalent in Manitoba, this has resulted in varieties being redefined as Susceptible (S) for Crown Rust resistance. Early seeding may reduce the likelihood of severe infection.

Variety Descriptions

C R O P

The yield of hulless oats is less than that of common oats in which the hull is part of the yield. Hulless oats should be stored at <12% moisture.

1 Winter wheat varieties generally have poor genetic resistance to fusarium head blight. Earlier flowering of winter wheat relative to spring wheat may allow winter wheat to escape infection. 2 All registered varieites have similar (good) winter hardiness if seeded at the optimum date into standing stubble where good snow cover can be assured. For the newer varieties of CDC Ptarmigan, Accipiter, Broadview, Peregrine, Sunrise, DH00W31N*34, DH99W181*45 and DH99W19H*16, there is limited information currently available. As these varieties are grown on more acres, a better understanding of relative winter hardiness will follow.

Hate wheat midge? Hate spraying?

You’ll love this. Grow a new midge tolerant wheat variety and protect your yields and grade. Midge tolerant wheat is grown with an interspersed refuge system – a varietal blend of susceptible wheat and tolerant wheat that prevents a build up of resistant midge. Maintaining this varietal blend by limiting the use of farm-saved seed is a simple step to prevent an estimated $36 per acre loss from midge damage, and preserve this new technology. What’s not to love about that?

Or visit www.midgetolerantwheat.ca to learn more.

Variety Description Key

A “CHECK CHARACTERISTICS” box has been placed at the bottom of each table, to display the long term yield, # of site years, %oil content, maturity and any other check attributes.

Except for long term average yield, variety description information was obtained from the Co-operative Registration Trials.

“Resistance to” ratings: HS = highly susceptible; S = susceptible; MS = moderately susceptible; MR = moderately resistant; R = resistant; n/a = not available. Site Years Tested is the cumulative number of locations over the years that a variety has been tested against the check variety. The more site years, the more dependable the data. π Indicates a variety that is protected by Plant Breeder’s Rights or a variety where protection has been applied for but not yet granted at time of printing.

TKW (Thousand Kernel Weight) is the weight in grams of 1000 seeds.

Key to 2010 Yield Tables

Yields derived over 2 or more growing seasons are the best indicator of variety performance. For new varieties, “2010 Average Yield” over all sites is more reliable than data from a single location. Use single site year data with caution. CV % = Coefficient of Variation. A measure of random variation in a trials. A low CV is desirable. LSD = Least Significant Difference. Varieties must differ by the LSD to be considered significantly different from one another. Sign Diff = Significant Difference. Indicates if a real difference exists between varieties at an individual site.

Canola Comments

The Seed Manitoba 2011 Canola Variety Descriptions table summarizes the performance information for varieties recommended for registration and that will be available for planting in spring 2011.

With the absence of the Prairie Canola Variety Trials (PCVT), Seed Manitoba 2011 has included the variety results from the canola registration trial data, accepted by the Western Canadian Canola/Rapeseed Recommending Committee (WCC/RRC) and used to register varieties with CFIA Variety Registration office. The WCC/RRC data is not meant to replace the PCVT or other annual field trial data. It is to be used as another source of information for relative comparisons between varieties. The data presented is for canola varieties entered into the 2009 PCVT (see pages 43 – 47 of Seed Manitoba 2010 for 2009 PCVT results) and/or registered since 2009 and will be available for 2011 planting. The WCC/RRC trial data is derived from a two year data set (1st year private and 2nd year public data), where the 1st year private data is from trials conducted by the breeding organization and the 2nd year from the publicly organized sites through WCC/RRC. The varieties would have been tested at twenty-five or more locations over the two years (please note the ‘years tested’ column for the years tested), but rarely, would any of these cultivars have been tested in the exact same set of trials. Trial design was small plot replicated trials, where weed control is managed through conventional herbicides (not by herbicide tolerance groups). The intent of the trial protocol is for trials to be weed free and show the genetic (yield, height, maturity, lodging, quality) differences between the varieties under the location’s environmental conditions.

S E E D

A positive value for yield of 10 would mean 10% higher than the indicated checks. Values for height and maturity are from the WCC/RRC data and are compared to the check varieties. Height is measured in cm and maturity is measured in days. The check varieties for the WCC/RRC trials were 45A65, Q2. This information is for comparative purposes only and no guarantee of actual field performance is implied.

Remember data shown is from multiple years and not all the varieties were tested within the same year and at same location. Caution should be used as these numbers are an average of performance at all locations, but an individual variety may not have performed the same way at each location.

Blackleg rating for canola. The rating represents a variety’s blackleg tolerance relative to the highly susceptible variety Westar. Varieties with a resistant (R) or moderately resistant (MR) rating for blackleg have shown the greatest ability to suppress blackleg incidence and severity, but can still develop some lesions or cankers. Newer pathogroups of blackleg have been confirmed and not all varieties will have resistance. As a result, individual field performance may vary from performance in the registration trials. In fields where newer blackleg pathogroups have been confirmed, where fall field scouting revealed higher than expected levels of blackleg or where there has been history of a tight rotation with canola, it may be necessary to lengthen rotation to achieve sufficient blackleg control.

O P S

Growing de-registered canola varieties De-registered varieties can be detected at very low levels and will result in rejected export shipments and increased monitoring of Canadian canola. If you have canola seed of these de-registered varieties, please contact your grain company before you deliver.

Field-scale trials

Best predictor of canola performance Field scale testing of canola hybrids is a trial method that has been developed to produce data that is a more accurate predictor of canola hybrid performance. Monsanto’s FACTTM (Field Analysis Comparison Trials) program is conducted and managed by leading growers across the country, exposing seed to real life conditions including local weather, soil types, production systems and equipment. Participants in the FACT TM program use appropriate herbicide systems and hybrids are swathed at correct maturities. The results come directly from growers and all data is published within a few days of harvest. FACTTM ADVANCEMENT

1 Oil quality of flax is based on the amount of linolenic acid measured in the seed or as measured by iodine value which is calculated from the fatty acid composition of the seed. A higher iodine value and/or higher ALA content indicates a higher overall oil quality in the seed. 2 E = Excellent; VG = Very Good; G = Good; FG = Fair to Good; F = Fair; PF = Poor to Fair; P = Poor.

2010/2011 Farm Flax Sample Testing To ensure continued export market access for Canadian flax an Industry Stewardship Program has been introduced. • Plant only seed that has been tested and is verified CDC Triffid-free. Any seed testing positive for CDC Triffid must not be cleaned or planted. • Keep the certificate of laboratory analysis that verifies the planted seed tested negative. • As of September 1, 2010, any flax entering the commercial grain handling system will be subjected to rigorous testing for the presence of CDC Triffid before accepted for delivery. Some flax buyers will only accept results from certain labs. Please check with your grain buyer and the Flax Council of Canada (www.flaxcouncil.com) for more details.

DECEMBER 2010

SOYBEANS O I L S E E D

NOTES FOR ALL SOYBEAN TABLES Maturity Notes: Always Use More Than 1 Criteria to Evaluate Maturity. 1 Soybean varieties have been organized into 3 maturity zones - short, mid and long season areas. Although there are no variety restrictions, the short season grouping is meant to be a starting point for new growers in the outer production areas. The long season group is targeted for the southern Manitoba generally south of highway 23, with the mid season grouping making up the bulk of the production area in between the short and long season area. 2 Company Crop Heat Unit ratings are assigned to assist growers select varieties suitable for their area. Unfortunately Company Heat Unit ratings do not always reflect the actual maturity in Manitoba. Growers should never rely on just 1 criteria for judging maturity. Experimental lines are not assigned a HU rating until they become registered. 3 Relative days to maturity (dtm) is the number of days from seeding to plant maturity (95% of the pods on the plant are mature with seeds rattling in the pods when plant is shaken) and is expressed as + or - days from the check. The dtm have been calculated from 4 common sites (Portage, Homewood, St. Adolphe, Morris) unless otherwise stated. Actual days to maturity for the check is found in the grey Check Box at the bottom of the table.

General Notes: 1 Roundup Ready, Conventional and soybean varieties are evaluated separately from Roundup Ready type varieties, meaning direct comparison of varieties between different tables is not possible. All trials are solid seeded at 210,000 plants/acre.

2 Hilum colour can range from Yellow (Y), Imperfect Yellow (IY), Grey (GR), Brown (BR), Buff (BF) or Black (BL) and is solely a marketing issue. The hilum is the point on the soybean seed where it attaches to the pod.

3 Relative Seeds/lb, these were the seed numbers of the varieties entered into the trial. Soybean seed size can vary greatly between varieties and even from seed lot to seed lot of the same variety. Growers should use the seed size for their seed lot when calculating seeding rates.

4 Lodging is rated at harvest; 1=standing upright, 5= flat along the ground. A rating of 3 or more can promote white mold within the crop canopy.

P S

5 Iron Deficiency Chlorosis (IDC) rating scores 1=green leaves, 2=yellowish leaves, 3=green veins with yellow leaves, 4=brown dead tissue between green veins, 5=severe chlorosis and a stunted growing point. Ratings were taken from 4 sites prone to iron chlorosis over the last 2 years. IDC tolerant varieties are varieties with lower IDC Scores and perform better on soils prone to iron deficiency. 6 Iron Deficiency Chlorosis (IDC) grouping is used because varieties will have different visual rating scores from year to year. Numerical ratings which are close but are in different groupings will show similar symptoms. Both numerical and groupings should be considered together when judging IDC. Tolerant=leaves stayed green, Semi Tolerant=leaves when yellow then turned green, Susceptible= leaves went chlorotic and had dead patches on their leaves and were often stunted. 7 Soybeans are not eligible for MASC Production Insurance in all parts of the province - consult your local agent for more details.

Western Manitoba Soybean Adaptation Trial Comments: The Adaptation Soybean variety trial was tested and the data was donated by Manitoba Pulse Growers Association. Soybeans do not qualify for MASC Production Insurance at Roblin or Hamiota.

1 On a whole seed content, seed protein in normal soybeans can range from 36 - 42%. Lower protein is usually an indications of poor nodulation during the growing season. Normal type soybeans (most conventional and Roundup Ready soybeans grown in Manitoba) have a whole seed protein around 40%, mid level types around 42.5% and high protein types around 45%. 2 Lodging rating averaged across Morris and Portage 2010 sites.

Whichever way you go, Nodulator® inoculants are quite simply the best investment you can put into your beans.

Variety Description Key

A “CHECK CHARACTERISTICS” box has been placed at the bottom of each table to display the long term yield, # of site years, % protein and any other check attributes.

Except for the long term average yield and protein data, variety description information was obtained from the Co-operative Registration Trials.

“Resistance to” ratings: VG = Very Good; G = Good; F = Fair; P = Poor; VP = Very Poor; “ n/a “ = not available Site Years Tested is the cumulative number of locations over the years that a variety has been tested against the check. The more site years the more dependable the data. π Indicates a variety that is protected by Plant Breeder’s Rights or a variety where protection has been applied for but not yet granted at time of printing. TKW (Thousand Kernel Weight) is the weight in grams of 1000 seeds.

Key to 2010 Yield and Protein Tables Yields derived over 2 or more growing seasons are the best indicator of variety performance. For new varieties, “2010 Average Yield” over all sites is more reliable than data from a single location. Use single site year data with caution. CV% = Coefficient of Variation. A measure of random variation in a trial. A low CV is desirable. LSD% = Least Significant Difference. Varieties must differ by the LSD% to be considered significantly different from one another. Sign Diff = Significant Difference. Indicates if a real difference exists between varieties at an individual site.

1 Each company assigns a corn heat unit (CHU) rating to each of their hybrids. The CHU rating is a measure of relative maturity and is one criteria for choosing a hybrid which will mature in your area. Moisture content at harvest, density, and days to 50% silk are other measurements to look at when evaluating the relative maturity of a hybrid. 2 Traits: BT, HX1, CB, YGCB – resistance to European corn borer; RR, RR2 - Roundup herbicide tolerant; GT – glyphosate herbicide tolerant; LL – Liberty herbide tolerant; YGRW, RW, HXX – resistance to rootworm; VT3 – resistant to ECB, Roundup herbicide tolerant and resistant to rootworm.

1 Long term Average Yield is the best indicator of variety performance. Use single site-year data with caution. 2 Due to different weather conditions each year, the actual number of days it takes a variety to fully mature varies from year to year. Choosing a variety that needs a longer growing season than your farm has, increases your risk of frost damage and lower returns.

SEED MANITOBA – 2011

DECEMBER 2010

Get rid of tough weeds before seeding to give pulses and canola a better head start. CleanStart takes burndown to the next level – tackling weeds that glyphosate doesn’t. • Controls spring-germinating dandelions, ALL volunteer canola and kochia. • Burns off all emerged weeds controlled by glyphosate. • Significantly faster burndown than glyphosate.

Leaders in off-patent solutions.

Variety Description Key

Except for long term average yield and quality data, variety description information was obtained from the Co-operative Registration Trials.

Disease Resistance ratings: (HS) highly susceptible; (S) susceptible; (MS) moderately susceptible; (MR) moderately resistant; (R) resistant; (n/a) not available.

R A G

π Indicates a variety that is protected by Plant Breeder’s Rights or a variety where protection has been applied for but not yet granted at time of printing.

* Seed sources can be found at the back of the forage section.

Key to 2010 Yield or Quality Tables Numbers in brackets indicate site years. Site Years Tested is the number of locations added up over the years that a variety has been tested in trials against the check. The more site years the more dependable the data. Use data with caution when there are fewer than 3 site years for annual crops and 9 site years for perennial crops. CV % = Coefficient of Variation. A measure of random variation in a trial. A small % CV is desirable. LSD % = Least Significant Difference. Varieties must differ by this percentage to be considered significantly different from one another.

We’re Serious About Seed

Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives Variety Guide FORAGE CULTIVAR EVALUATION The Manitoba Forage Council operates the Forage Cultivar Evaluation Program. Management of the program is through an industry team approach. Producers, seed trade, extension and researchers are involved in the forage evaluation management committee. The perennial forage cultivar evaluation is coordinated with similar programs in Saskatchewan and Alberta, allowing for sharing of test data. The annual forage testing is coordinated with other testing facilities and producer organizations. The testing sites

are Arborg, Melita, Rosebank (formerly Neepawa), Roblin and St. Adolphe (formerly St. Pierre Jolys). Cooperation and support from program partners have allowed the efficient operation of testing in 2010. The objective of the evaluation program is to provide information to Manitoba’s forage producers and industry partners on the performance of annual and perennial forage cultivars under Manitoba conditions. The program measures dry matter yields of perennials under a three-cut system over three production years and annuals under a one-cut system

over 3 years. The program has also developed test procedures to evaluate persistence, winter-hardiness and grazing tolerance. The Manitoba Forage Council publishes results from the forage evaluation trials with detailed information on forage production. These reports are available from Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives (MAFRI) offices, MAFRI Forage specialists, Rangeland and Pasture specialists, and the Manitoba Forage Council.

Support for Forage Cultivar Evaluation was obtained from various sectors of the agricultural industry. In appreciation of their partnership in this program, the following sponsors are acknowledged: Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives Agricultural Sustainability Initiative Green Cover Program – Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Viterra

ALFALFA WINTER HARDINESS This Plant Hardiness Zones (2000) map outlines the different zones within Manitoba where various types of plants (including alfalfa) will likely survive the winter. It is based on 30-year average climatic conditions of each area (min. and max. temperatures, frost-free period, summer and January rainfall, snow cover, wind speed, elevation). Hardiness Zone ratings are to be used only as guideline when selecting varieties as many factors influence overwintering ability (such as snow cover, timing of cold weather, location of plants in the landscape, relative health of plants as they enter winter). Always use optimum management techniques to ensure winter survival when choosing a variety with slightly poorer overwintering rating.

CORN HEAT UNIT ACCUMULATION Corn heat units (CHU) are closely related to corn development. CHU is better than calendar days or growing degree days because CHU’s only accumulate when night temperatures are above 4.4°C and day temperatures above 10°C, and maximum growth occurs at 30°C and decreases with higher temperatures. The map above indicates 30-year average accumulation of CHU in varying regions in the province.

4 TDN, ADF & NDF were measured on a composite sample for each hybrid. 5 Milk per Acre was calculated using Milk 2006, a model developed by the University of Wisconsin Extension Service. A combination of actual feed test values (DM, CP, NDF, starch) and book values (NDFd, ash, fat) was used. 6 Beef per acre was calculated on the assumption that one pound of beef is produced for every six pounds of TDN.

1 Quality is highly dependent on plant maturity at harvest. For optimium quality: harvest barley at early-mid dough stage; oats & triticale at milk to early dough stage. 2 Resistance to leaf diseases can improve forage quality and yield: (VG) Very Good; (G) Good; (F) Fair; (P) Poor; (VP) Very Poor; ( R) Resistant; (MR) Moderately Resistant; (I) Intermediate; (MS) Moderately Susceptible; (S) Susceptible n/a = not available. See cereal & special crop section in of this guide for more detail of crop tolerances. 3 All varieties are suceptible to new races NA67 and NA76. These races caused moderate damage to crops in the Red Valley in 2001 & 2002

First letter is prefered use. 3 Type: F-Flemish type, purple flowered & early-growing. V-Variegated type, derived from flemish & falcata type crosses. F,V-Mixed type, exhibits both characteristics. 4 FD indicates the varieties characteristic to go dormant in fall. FD 9 will grow vigirously in fall; FD 2 will have little fall growth evident. Varieties with ratings of 1 - 4 are considered adequately winter hardy for Manitoba conditions while those of 5 or higher are not well adapted. Varieties with higher ratings should be managed carefully to ensure longevity. 5 WH: ability of plants to survive winter and be productive next year. Ratings utilize North American approved Winter Hardiness Zone ratings. Varieties are compared against known check varieties (1=most hardy, 5=least hardy). Score of 1 indicates adaptation to all zones, score of 2 indicates adaptability in zones 2 and above, score of 3 indicates adaptability in 3 and above. (See Winter Hardiness Zone map in front of forage section). Scores are from the Manitoba Forage Council and 3rd party northern US tests using a minimum of 4 sites years of data over 2 winters. Grazing Tolerance: University of Manitoba study (1996 - 1999) determined winterhardiness was more influential than grazing tolerance to stand persistence under grazing. 6 Maturity rating indicates relative comparison of first flowering dates. Early varieties will bloom before late varieties, may provide more cuts/year, but are less hardy. 7 Disease Resistance:(HR) higly resistant; (R) resistance; (MR) moderatley resistant; (S) no resistance. Bacterial Wilt (BW), Verticillium Wilt (VW) Phytophythora Root Rot (PRR). 8 Multifoliate varieties have genetic potential to produce 4 or more leaflets per leaf. This trait is influenced by environmental conditions

I get goosebumps. I can’t help it – it’s an involuntary response that comes with harvesting an incredible InVigor® hybrid canola crop. Every year about this time I see the endless fields of InVigor and I can’t control myself. The early season vigor, high stress tolerance and the market-leading yields are second to none. For more information visit BayerCropScience.ca/InVigor.

Nothing outperforms.
