Canterra News Release
Winnipeg-based seed company Canterra Seeds has announced that they have developed the first canola hybrid with a resistance to clubroot.
President and CWO David Hansen says the seed will have the most comprehensive clubroot resistance on the market to the new 5x clubroot pathotype.
"CS2000 is a huge step forward for growers battling clubroot," said Hansen. "And just as importantly, it also brings excellent yield, standability and agronomic characteristics. It's a win-win variety for us and for our retailer partners who strive to bring the very best genetics to their farmer customers."
The new CS-2000 seed, which will be available this spring, has already undergone years of in-field testing and lab testing by the University of Alberta.
The newest 5x pathotype was first discovered in a field north of Edmonton.
