Canola TV--Winfield 'Answer Plots' Highlight Canola Production Practices in Upcoming Sessions

Mon, 05 Nov 2012 14:39:38 CST

In an effort to help prospective producers get up to speed quickly with growing canola, experts at Winfield Solutions established their "Answer Plot" System. The system was started five years ago and now has two locations in Oklahoma. Justin Stejskal of Winfield spoke with Ron Hays recently about the program and two upcoming educational seminars in Oklahoma.


"The Answer Plot System is a national system sponsored by Winfield. Nationally we have about 200 sites across the United States including Mexico, Canada, and a site Kenya and one in China also now. Here in Oklahoma, we have two sites.


"The Answer Plot System is based on crops grown locally in that region. So, in Oklahoma, we have two sites with winter canola and winter wheat.


He says the project's purpose is to demonstrate the latest management practices mainly for canola. He says a portion of the field is dedicated to replicated trials for yield trials, population studies, and fertility studies.   In addition, he said his company's wheat varieties are tested based on seed treatment options and the like.


Stejskal says his company is offering instructional sessions coming in November at the Oklahoma test plots.   


The first session is scheduled for 10 a.m. Nov. 13th in Kingfisher. The plot is located on the north side of the fairgrounds.


The second session is set for 10 a.m. Nov. 14th at the Apache test plot. It is located one mile north and one-fourth mile west of the sale barn in Apache.


The sessions are scheduled to last about an hour and a half, Stejskal says, and lunch will be provided.


Discussions at the session will involve wheat, canola, and alfalfa.
