Producers should be on the watch for warm temperatures, according to recent advice from the Canola Watch. High temperatures can reduce flower reproductive function in canola from bud to
mid-flowering stages, increase the risk of disease and cause some unique challenges for spraying a fungicide.

Lygus bugs cause yield loss in a wide range of crops, including canola, soybean and alfalfa, by feeding on the plants. The wounds they make in plant tissue also leave room for infection
from disease pathogens. Scouting is the first step toward effective management.

Saskatchewan Agriculture reports good overall crop conditions between July 2 to 8 with canola and spring cereals being the furthest behind the normal stages
of development for this time of year in the province. Given the high heat and humidity, conditions may be conducive to disease development - and producers are on the watch.

Fusarium head blight (FHB) continues to be a challenge across the Prairies. While there are management strategies available, current solutions provide suppression at best. Researchers initiated
two studies to determine potential management strategies and, more specifically, if row spacing (wheat only), water volumes (barley only), seeding rates and fungicide timing and their potential interactions affect FHB development, leaf disease and crop productivity
in wheat and barley.

Although potash fertilizer has been shown to improve plant resistance to stresses such as diseases, drought and cold, and help optimize yields for crops such as barley and wheat, little
information is available about the potential of potash fertilizer in these drier region crops. Researchers are investigating this potential in crops such as durum wheat, mustard and chickpeas, commonly grown in the Brown soil zone areas.
