    Canola varieties for 19

    What preformed well on your farms this year? Will you try some new varieties that are available for 19? I grew L233 it did ok considering basicallly no rain in July and the good old heat.
    I miss growing 252, but don’t want to swath after straight cutting for two years. It’s hard to beat 252 for yield.
    There are new varieties coming out. Dekalb has a few, haven’t seen any data to see how they compared to the competitors. But, of course they will be better depending on compny they are up against. Dekalb has a new Liberty link variety which is a good idea.
    Seed costs are through the roof like everything but we still be booking seed.

    We are interested in 233 for next year but some guys dont seem real happy with it . We grew 230 and it finally knocked the pioneer clearfield varieties out of top spot for yield on our farm . The 45h76 had been top yielder for 3 years and grew 45h75 this year . It still yielded really good and was on a poor field , but the 230 really came through this year . Highest canola yield ever on our farm on a small field . The rest was kinda comparable with the pioneer
    But on a whole quarter nexera 1012 outyielded them all and of course you cant get that next year

            They like you to pay to get the early cheap price.

                  You will like 75-65 it will do good in your area. I grew it in 17 did close to the top against 5 other varieties.
