Subject: Eastern mid west canola questions


I am in East-Central Indiana and have been contacted about growing canola for a local livestock producer. It will be all organic canola, I am handling the transition but have questions about canola itslelf.

As I understand it is planted in the fall and harvested in the summer like wheat.

I get about 3,800 - 4,200 growing degree days per year.

Can I just straight cut the canola in a more humid, 40+” of rainfall per year environment?

I hear some producers spray their canola before harvest (straight cut) - does every operator have to spray before harvest and I am assuming that is not possible with organic.

If anyone has insight on this that would be appreciated as I know nothing about canola production. Thanks!
