Success is driving expansion of the wheat yield enhancement network (YEN)

Highly engaged wheat growers wanting to learn how to grow better wheat are driving expansion of the Great Lakes Yield Enhancement Network (YEN). Coordinated by the Grain Farmers of Ontario, Michigan State University, Michigan Wheat Program, the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and the University of Guelph, the Great Lakes YEN project helps farmers learn from each other about new ways to improve winter wheat yields. "It's been a huge undertaking in terms of labour to put everything together that has to be done for all the data collection and the reports that go back to growers, but the amount of information that we're generating is phenomenal," reports Michigan State wheat systems specialist, Dennis Pennington. At the Ontario Agricultural Conference last week, Pennington noted that the Great Lakes YEN kicked off in 2021 with 43 growers before expanding in 2022 with 98 growers completing the project.

New growth regulator offers yield protection for cereal growers

February 18, 2021 Crops that lodge due to high moisture or severe wind conditions may suffer lower yields due to poor grain fill or even lost grain. Lodged crops may also be more susceptible to disease infection, which impacts quality. Late last year, Syngenta received the all-clear for a new plant growth regulator (PGR) called Moddus, that helps strengthen stems to reduce lodging risk. Moddus contains trinexapac-ethyl, a proven active ingredient for managing cereal crop lodging. The product works by redirecting the plant’s production of gibberellic acid, a hormone responsible for growth, to reduce cell elongation, which results in shorter, thicker stems and improved standability overall.
