BASF Area Sales Manager for North Dakota and South Dakota, Bob Bohl says the western Dakotas are perfect for yellow-seeded canola. “Looking at the western Dakotas, I see a lot of opportunity with yellow-seeded canola to help provide some yield stability in areas where they may get challenged by the environment.” In addition to yield stability, BASF’s Invigor Gold brand of yellow-seeded canola will help reduce some of the risk farmers in drier climates might face when growing canola. “We tend to get hot and dry later in the season, specifically in the western portion of the state, so I see Invigor Gold helping to maintain that profile from a yield stability scenario and an oil profile to help maintain return on investment for a farmer trying to grow canola.” Invigor Gold will be commercially available in America in 2027 and in Canada by the end of the decade.
