NE Saskatchewan | Variety And fungicide use plays a big role in test weight as well. Have been growing leggett oats for the last 4 years and typically average 42 pound bushel weight. Yield wise, anything under 100 is a disaster up here. Typically see 115 to 150 bushel to the acre. apply 30 to 55 pounds of N, maximum of 70 pounds with 90 to 95 of available being the optimum goal to hit. Lodging is the kicker for yield, with the wet years we have been experiencing, we've had to drop N rates or split application to keep the crop standing. | |
