Long story short she had figured out a simple way to see what each cultivar was removing from the soil... soil sample/fertilizer rate/ discoveryield+protein/ then soil sample afterwards to figure out what the removal rate of each cultivar was. Some hard red varieties were as low as 40 ish % with some closer to 80.
    Should a bunch of money be put into such research continuing forward so we can ( and should / would want to) grow varieties that utilized the most amount of Nitrogen each and every year?
    Why is this not part of the emission reduction plan?
    Who decides on where R&D $ are spent? Do farmers through their commissions not have that say?

      Looks like the Dutch farmers had the right response to the conditions imposed on them. Booted the climate government to the curb in the recent election.

        I see there is an article in Western Producer about this. Why didn't they take this behind the barn and shoot it?

        The underhanded way they are rolling out the second try . Two zoom meetings easily missed due to calving.

        Anything with DU involved in any measure says it is garbage.

          On the first Roundtable of Wordsalad the point was definitely made that Ducks Unlimited should have zero input.

          Why did they not listen?
          What connection does Ducks Unlimited have with the organizers?

            Because DU is not a conservation group, it is a land accumulator.

            Then they access government funding using their bullshit environmental scams.

            The guys behind this roundtable should disclose all their relationships to various groups as to why they are promoting this.
