Farmers urged to start clubroot scouting at harvest
SASKATCHEWAN – Saskatchewan farmers will have a lot to think about this fall once harvest begins. This is also the time to be scouting for clubroot.
SaskCanola Chair Wayne Truman said the ideal time to test for clubroot is after the field is swathed or during the straight cut.
Farmers can pick up a sample kit from one of the 10 Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture regional offices, select R.M. offices or by contacting the SaskCanola head office in Saskatoon.
Truman said the process for taking the sample is quite simple.
