Biological nitrogen fixation in canola

The Challenge

Canola production requires the addition of nitrogen fertilizer, which is both costly and contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.

The Project

Create a canola variety that can fix its own atmospheric nitrogen to supplement the use of nitrogen fertilizer.

The Results

This section will be updated upon completion of the project.

Grower Benefits

Canola that can fix its own atmospheric nitrogen will be sustainably sourcing nutrients while saving growers on fertilizer costs.
