Curtis and Jeff discuss three years of nitrogen trials in canola and wheat, exploring the effects of nitrogen rates and placements.

In this episode of EQUIPPED Agronomy, Curtis and Jeff break down three years of nitrogen trials in canola and wheat—comparing rates, forms, and placements. They explore why canola consistently responded to higher N, why wheat didn’t, and how organic matter and moisture complicate nitrogen planning. Practical insights on finding the real “sweet spot” for N rates, boosting protein, and making nitrogen dollars count.
