13 New N FertilityTrials for Winter Canola at Hartline, Ritzville, and St. John: Harsher conditions cause more plant dieback than at N. OR studies, may cause higher N requirements, different N timing strategies to support plant regrowth.

20 Spring canola UNRs (lb total N supply/100 lb seed) decrease with increasing water supply and yield potential Water supply

22 Calculate spring canola N fertilizer requirement based on soil test results Total soil N supply = 69 lb soil N/A If the yield potential is 2000 lbs/acre, the total N supply requirement is 7 lbs N/100 wt x wt = 140 lb N/A and the fertilizer N requirement is. 140 lb N/A 69 lb soil N/A = 71 lb fert N/A This soil (is, is not) deficient in P. This soil (is, is not) deficient in K. This soil (is, is not) too acid. This soil (has, does not have) salinity problems?

35 CANOLA FERTILITY Summary Fertilizer carries over from one season to the next, so SOIL TEST! Canola accumulates more N and more aggressively scavenges N than wheat. Wheat yield based N recommendation method applies to canola N management, but with different UNRs. UNRs (lb total N supply/100 lb seed) decrease with increasing water supply, ranging from 13 to 6 lb N/100 lb grain yield 1 lb P/ 100 lb grain yield 1 lb S/100 lb grain yield B, Zn, Mo other micronutrients additional work needed Beware of Ammonia toxicity of SOME N fertilizers at planting. N timing, placement, and source adjustments from wheat N management are recommended.
