Root rot continues to restrict pea production across SK, making resistance a top priority for pulse growers. SPG is investing in breeding research at @CDC_USask to develop pea varieties with improved root rot resistance while maintaining yield and quality.

Root rot is the most significant biotic stress affecting pea and lentil production in Saskatchewan. Understanding pathogen behaviour and rotation effects is essential to improving resistance, and SPG is investing in research to support long-term solutions. @CDC_USask

Ever wonder where our variety names come from? CDC Wiseton wasn’t picked at random. As our first durum variety with intermediate FHB resistance, the idea was simple: make the "wise" choice. Factor in Sask Rep @SeCanLauren’s local roots to Wiseton, the name stuck. Wondering where CDC Wiseton fits on your farm? Learn more: secan.com/varieties/cdc-… #SeCan #CdnAg #CDCWiseton #SaskFarming

Next up in our fresh Durum Pasta Making Adventures- CDC Vantta- our pasta chef extraordinaire definitely noticed how much nicer the CDC Vantta was to work with with her pasta machine. Very cool to see first hand, even on a small scale #CDCVantta #FieldToTable @CDC_USask
