Clubroot

[Goodtime]

Great...Clubroot is now confirmed north west of North Battleford....seems to be a matter of time.

It's been in western Sask a few years

This fall someone came and took a soil sample to check for clubroot here In the Slum of the Ghetto. They called the RM looking for a list of people who would take part. I hope there's nothing here.

I asked if they test for aphanomyces....different department/group.

I believe the clubroot in wc sask was on a field that had never had canola before on a farm that had never grown canola.

Some theories are that it came from contaminated farm equipment or more likely oilfield equipment.

Pipeline coming through here starting next fall..... they say they're pretty vigilant. I think they even test the soil before they go through to cover their ass in case any is found and it was there before they got here.

I can't imagine any amount of "sanitization" would be fool proof.

They wash before every RM very serious ordeal as they must even collect all the wash water. Pricey I was told.
