        by the way tom there are only a handfull of farmers using clubroot resistant cultivars in mb. It is a non issue here if you use any kind of a crop rotation

          bgmb,

          If you actually want this Canola to not be de registered... you are welcome to talk and get permission from the breeder of this seed to;... market it... grow it... and maintain the 46a76 yourself... needed to maintain the novel trait registration and purity so the event stays pure plus the Canola oil specifications for quality control for end users and farmers who will want to use the clearfield tolerance for weed control.

          If there is NO seed production using the pedigreed system... the Canola and Clearfield qualities will undergo genetic degradation... which is what the pedigreed seed registration/production through the channels in place provide. This is the minimum international standard for quality control of our CDN Ag grain seeds... which I support in principal.

            So farmers producing their own seed stock is going to threaten oil quality? A bit of a stretch....

            I think the practice of continually over time spraying the seed crop with group 2 chemistry will ensure that the clearfield trait remains intact.
