What is Seed Manitoba?

Seed Manitoba is an invaluable resource for producers as the seed guide contains agronomic, disease resistance and quality information for all crop varieties to better assist farmers in making crop varietal choices for their farming operation.  The yield and protein information in Seed Manitoba is derived from small plot replicated trials by third party contract researchers across Manitoba agro-regions to assess genetic potential throughout Manitoba. The remainder of agronomy and disease resistance information comes from the Prairie Grain Development Committee registration data.
