#DYK Corn requires about 100 – 120 GDD (roughly 140 – 180 CHU) to emerge. In mid-May 2023, that was about 9 days. In a “normal” May, that may be closer to 14 days. Planting in April brings a risk of seed sitting in the field for 3-4 weeks in Manitoba, vulnerable to the elements.

The Spring/Summer 2024 Edition of the Fence Post will be mailed out to our members starting next week!

This issue includes the latest MCA news, noxious weeds, economic impact data & our cover story: the strong partnership between U.K. bakery Warburtons & Manitoba wheat growers.
