AC Mustang is a dual purpose (grain/silage) oat with high grain yield, good lodging resistance, plump kernels, high test weight, and desirable agronomic features. Its maturity rating is intermediate to Cascade and Dumont, and its forage/silage yield potential is higher man other registered cultivars with the exception of Foothill. Its hull content is higher than is desirable for milling. AC Mustang is well adapted to Alberta and the rust-free areas of western Saskatchewan. Key words:Avena sativa, oat (spring), cultivar description

Jasper is an early-maturing, high-yielding spring oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar developed at the Agriculture Canada Research Station, Lacombe, Alberta. It was selected from a Cavell/Gemini cross, and is intended primarily for production in central and northern Alberta. Jasper is the highest yielding cultivar in its maturity group. It has moderate to low hull content, high test weight and excellent sprouting tolerance.Key words: Avena sativa, oat, cultivar description

AC Juniper is an early maturing oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar with high grain yield and good lodging resistance. It has a higher kernel weight, a higher percentage of plump kernels, and a lower percentage of thin kernels than Jasper. Its hull content is significantly lower than Cascade, similar to Jasper and Dumont, and higher than Derby. AC Juniper is well adapted to Alberta and the rust-free areas of western Saskatchewan.

Recent expansion of cropping into Australia’s high-rainfall zone (HRZ) has involved dual-purpose crops suited to long growing seasons that produce both forage and grain. Early adoption of dual-purpose cropping involved cereals; however, dual-purpose canola (Brassica napus) can provide grazing and grain and a break crop for cereals and grass-based pastures. Grain yield and grazing potential of canola (up until bud-visible stage) were simulated, using APSIM, for four canola cultivars at 13 locations across Australia’s HRZ over 50 years. The influence of sowing date (2-weekly sowing dates from early March to late June), nitrogen (N) availability at sowing (50, 150 and 250 kg N/ha), and crop density (20, 40, 60, 80 plants/m2) on forage and grain production was explored in a factorial combination with the four canola cultivars. The cultivars represented winter, winter × spring intermediate, slow spring, and fast spring cultivars, which differed in response to vernalisation and photoperiod. Overall, there was significant potential for dual-purpose use of winter and winter × spring cultivars in all regions across Australia’s HRZ. Mean simulated potential yields exceeded 4.0 t/ha at most locations, with highest mean simulated grain yields (4.5–5.0 t/ha) in southern Victoria and lower yields (3.3–4.0 t/ha) in central and northern New South Wales. Winter cultivars sown early (March–mid-April) provided most forage (>2000 dry sheep equivalent (DSE) grazing days/ha) at most locations because of the extended vegetative stage linked to the high vernalisation requirement. At locations with Mediterranean climates, the low frequency (<30% of years) of early sowing opportunities before mid-April limited the utility of winter cultivars. Winter × spring cultivars (not yet commercially available), which have an intermediate phenology, had a longer, more reliable sowing window, high grazing potential (up to 1800 DSE-days/ha) and high grain-yield potential. Spring cultivars provided less, but had commercially useful grazing opportunities (300–700 DSE-days/ha) and similar yields to early-sown cultivars. Significant unrealised potential for dual-purpose canola crops of winter × spring and slow spring cultivars was suggested in the south-west of Western Australia, on the Northern Tablelands and Slopes of New South Wales and in southern Queensland. The simulations emphasised the importance of early sowing, adequate N supply and sowing density to maximise grazing potential from dual-purpose crops.

AAC Bloomfield is a six-row spring feed barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivar with high yield, high test weight, high seed weight, and good lodging resistance. It performed well in the Maritime Six-Row Barley Registration and Recommendation Test (2013–2016) before being registered in 2017. AAC Bloomfield was developed by the Ottawa Research and Development Centre, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Ottawa, ON. AAC Bloomfield is recommended for barley growing areas in the Maritime provinces.
