Staff in the Crop production branch are involved with Manitoba Crop variety Evaluation Trials (MCVET). MCVET serves as an independent third-party crop variety evaluation program for producers and the seed industry in Manitoba. MCVET committee oversees the production of an annual variety performance report known as “Seed Manitoba”. Under the MCVET program we conduct variety testing in Peas, Soybeans, and edible beans. In addition conduct protein analysis on peas and soybeans.

Nitrogen and Protein - from maximizing profitability for protein and seeking better nitrogen use efficiency Extremes of Moisture Initiative - there is currently significant national and international research focused on drought issues for cereals but in much of Manitoba crops are often at risk of yield loss due to excess moisture than drought Rotation Considerations - with a special focus on pulse – cereal rotations.

General: Research funding portfolio concentrates on issues of primary production but the continuum extends from prebreeding genetic investigations through plant breeding and variety development to resource efficiency in grain production on the farm, market acceptance issues and opportunities with a few projects which concentrate on meeting processing opportunities.
