New 72-55 RR canola from Dekalb

We just finished laying out the April 21 issue of Grainews, and I ran out of room to put in a note about this new hybrid from Dekalb. The next issue doesn't come out until the first week of May, which is a bit late for an announcement about a new seed variety. Especially since Monsanto has a limited quantity available for 2008. The company expects 72-55 RR to be the highest yielding in its line up. If you want a little more proof, check out field trials this summer. Monsanto will have 72-55 RR in 100 side-by-side field-scale trials and in 30 field analysis comparison trials, a.k.a. FACT trials.
