    Seeding bin run canola seed

    We seeded some Bin run 46A76 canola. We got the seed treated with some Helix extra. We used a seeding rate of 5.5 pounds per acre. Most of this canola we applied 52 pounds of 14-36-0-7 fertilzer with the seed and 104 pounds of 41-0-0-4 fertilzer in the mid row. One field we applied a higher rate of 66 pounds with the seed and 170 pound in the mid row of the the same blends we used at the lower rate.


    We also seeded some Canterra 1990 canola at a seeding rate of 5 pounds per acre. We applied 60 pounds 14-36-0-7 fertilizer with the seed and 140 pounds of 41-0-0-4 fertilzer in the midrow.

    At thiis time the Canterra 1990 is looking a little bit better. The canterra 1990 got 3/10ths of rain about 2 weeks ago and the bin run canola did not get any of that rain.

    We are getting a nice soaker now so it should get it all going nicely.

    Any predictions on how the the the bin run seed will compare?

    We got a couple of mini bulk bags of seed this spring and I was told by a few people the best thing i could do is put it in a hole and burn it.

    I am not expecting it to yield as good as the 1990 but I am curious to see how much less it will be.

    A lot less risk as my cost for seed was $4 pound including treatment.
