We evaluated a microbial inoculant containing a free-living nitrogen-fixing bacteria (Gluconoacetobacter diazotrophicus) for its ability to biologically fix N for wheat, soybean and canola Three inoculation methods were tested: direct application to the seed, foliar inoculation; and soaking the…Read More
Intercropping of pulse and oilseeds to enhance nutrient use efficiency and nitrogen fixation
The interest in growing pulse-oilseeds together as intercrop combinations in western Canada is increasing, but little is known about the nutrient dynamics operative that drive the observed synergies Two promising pulse-oilseed combinations (chickpea-flax and dry pea – white mustard) were grown as…Read More
