So what alliance is behind c-91 ??

[furrowtickler]

Fj, they are correct on the fungicide being only 60% effective - on it's own.
Here is a trial we did with fungicides in hrsw at heading with and without a foliar nutrient:

A. 71 bus - headline with 6 ltr/ac Kugler XRN 14.2 pro, .45 fus, #2 red

B. 66.4 bus - 6 ltr/ac Kugler XRN 14.2 pro, .7 fus, #2 red

C. 60.16 bus - check 13 pro, .54 fus, #2 red

D. 73.2 bus - 75% caramba, 6 ltr/ac Kugler XRN, 14.1 pro, .2 fus, #1 red

E. 64.8 bus - full rate caramba, 13.5 pro, .3 fus, #2 red

F. 70.9 bus - 75% prasaro, 6 ltr/ac Kugler XRN, 13.6 pro, .12 fus, #1 red.

In this trial, fungicides did suppress fus about 50% on their own , but were more effective when used with a nutrient in reducing fus. We seen similar results in three other trials in hrsw in the area.

*note - the headline was just for interest sake. I know it is not registered for suppression of fus but thought it would be interesting to see.

All trials had 55 lbs N and 4 gal alpine at seeding.
6 ltr/ac Kugler 2075 was applied with herbicide on everything.

Sorry , bill c-18 ....

[TOM4CWB]

Furrow.. the choice for western Canadian grain growers... to access new and novel genetics... fusarium resistance... nitrogen fixing capacity... any one of many new and exciting opportunities we well could encourage...

Is a feather in our cap as Canadians. I am sorry you do not see it that way. Simple preparation by retaining seed stocks you enjoy on your farm... is a privilege you are granted under UPOV91. Enjoy these well deserved benefits... as well as the right NOT to be double billed on royalties and levys.

Have a great day... and write dear Hunter a letter!!!

Tom, access is not restricted now( I mean last week, before C-18). Chinese Sumai wheat looks good for FHB resistance, no one was preventing us from getting at it. Work has been done on N fixing wheat for over 30 years, again no restrictions to access.
Stronger abilities for big seed cos. to extract profit is all we get, farmers have nothing we didn't already have.

[TOM4CWB]

I respectfully disagree with your opinion about seed genetics.

We are a very small market in the global community. If we do not have good protection for PBR, intellectual property rights, and novel developments in our seeds... we are and will further fall behind those in the global community who can protect plant breeders and attract further research and seed advancements. The old UPOV does not cut it. Which is why the global community has been developing and refining the new UPOV... to advance agriculture and be sustainable in our food production system.

Cheers!

BTW Captain...

Please write Hunter and his railing crew... the CTA, and local MLA's you know... get out the pen... it is mightier than the sword!!!

[BTO_farmalll]

[sawfly]

Tom what are you on.
quit taking it,
your health is more important than this crusade.
i know the gov. is responsible for the
transportation fiasco we now face.
you have just been a target on here for your defense of them.
it is almost like your having a crisis of faith.
you helped feed this snake and now it bit you.
now you bring another snake in.
UPOV91
but it will be nicer?

[TOM4CWB]

Then BTO, you had better hire a different agronomist; get a new seed supplier... do more research... or all of the above!

Cheers!

Get all of your friends to write CEO Hunter a letter... you folks could flood his mail room!!! Write Bill Gates;

""The only person who beneficially owns, or exercises control or direction over, directly or indirectly, shares carrying 10 per cent or more of the voting rights attached to any class of shares of the company is Mr. William H. Gates III," the circular said.

CN's market capitalization for its 458.6 million shares was $32 billion."

They need to know... about the nasty and mean war he has waged against the farmers in western Canada!!!
