Direct seeding is a best management practice that reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Check with your agronomist about on-farm direct seeding demonstrations. Click here for more information. 

Crop rotations are a vital part of direct seeding systems. Rotations maximize the benefits of moisture conservation and reduce the impacts of diseases, weeds and insect pests. 

Sixty miles east of Lethbridge, Koos Wysbeek evaluates the risks and rewards of dryland pulses as he plans for next year’s crop. Koos manages 4000 direct-seeded dryland acres and 4500 irrigated acres on Burbridge Farm Limited at Burdett. He is also a Commissioner for the Alberta Pulse Growers. 

Consequently, the farmer is now called upon to fulfill the conflicting roles of steward of the countryside and provider of food, while his or her activities come under increasing scrutiny. Manipulation of Agro-ecosystems 

Experiments were conducted from 1988 to 1990 at four locations in the region to document the effectiveness of preharvest applications of glyphosate to enhance canola seed and foliage drydown and to measure the effect of such applications on seed yield and quality.
