2014 National Canola Research Conference
This fourth NCRC was held Nov. 2-5 in conjunction with the American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America and Soil Science Society of America annual meetings in Long Beach, Calif. Presentations covered industrial applications, breeding and genetics, spring and winter canola production, and crop end uses:
