ECODA project number: Oilseeds East Activity 17

Objectives:

  1. Evaluate the integration of canola in a potato cropping system and measure the benefits and/or negative impacts during the potato year.
  2. Compare rotation system including canola with conventional and new potato cropping systems.
  3. Determine the best temporal position in the cropping system for the canola and evaluate the impact on other crops included in the rotation.
  4. Evaluate the influence of canola crop on the potato soil-born disease evolution.
  5. Measure nutrient balance and economic impact.

This research is underway, so the research project’s final report is not available yet.
