***THIS PODCAST IS FROM A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO*** The theory and practical tips remain the same, but seasonal conditions and commodity prices have changed. The current canola price on 28.9.26 is ~$780 delivered Parkes. Maurie Street from GOA chats to us about direct heading canola, based on GOA's trial work: Why and when would you do it -The risks and rewards -The risks of shatter -Header setup -The impacts on yield and oil%.

***THIS PODCAST IS FROM A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO*** The numbers to determine colour change are still correct, but seasonal conditions and commodity prices have changed. The current canola price on 28.9.26 is ~$780 delivered Parkes. GOA's Maurie Street talks us through the correct time to windrow your canola: -To maximise yield -Maximise oil % -Where to look on the plant for seed colour change -How big an issue is shattering ....and lots more ti...

The 2026 canola crop, where there is one, is at a variety of growth stages, including some VERY advanced stuff. GOA's Maurie Street goes through the correct timing for clethodim, it's not as easy as you think! Based on 20+ trials GOA has conducted. -How to avoid damage. -What damage looks like. -The impact of damage on yield.

GOA’s Maurie Street & Penny Heuston chat about F2 canola seed. ??? Does it save you money OR cost you yield??? Its impact on: Establishment.Plant vigour.Yield.…based on trial work GOA has done across the Central West into farmer-retained hybrid canola seed.

🎧PODCAST: Nutrition in a year with low starting water & high fertiliser costs🎧 2026 looks a tough one, not much moisture about & getting high $$$$ fert a challenge. Listen to our chat with Maurie Street re: -Where do you get the best ROI from your fert $$. -Should you put your limited fert tonnes on wheat OR canola? -Is NOT fertilising your crop false economy?

Listen to our podcast from last year with GOA's Maurie Street re canola diseases & fungicide applications, based on trials GOA has conducted. We have a quick introductory chat about the risk of sclerotinia in 2025 & if you should be rushing out on the spray rig. Podcast has some good facts & figures on: -What diseases may be an issue in 2025 & their lifecycle. -Fungicides: to spray or not to spray. -Is spraying ...

GOA's Maurie Street gives us the good oil on clethodim use in canola, based on 20+ trials GOA has conducted. -How to avoid damage. -Timing (it's not as easy as you think). -What damage looks like. -The impact of damage on yield.

The importance of good water quality for good spray results. Maurie Street from GOA has a chat about the importance of water quality and spraying: -Do you know the quality of your water source for spraying? -What impact is it having on your spray job? -What can you do to if you have sub optimal water? AND you don't always need adjuvants!

Maurie Street chats to us about canola phosphorus placement. Based on 22 trials since 2015 have shown that modifying starter P placements can: Avoiding establishment losses whilst maintaining yields Achieve more reliable and predictable establishments By ‘SPLITTING’ starter fertilisers growers can Spread fertiliser in less busy periods Reduce fertiliser handling at sowing Streamline sowing operations Risk management strategy- dry sowing etc&...

In this podcast Maurie chats to us about: Non-chemical options for weed control using crop competition - it's cheap & relatively easy to do!Does increasing sowing rates lead to increased screenings?What happens to yield in dry years in the more marginal areas of the CW when you increase plant populations?What yield are you leaving in the paddock? Lower sowing rates often result in lower yields than higher ones.

GOA's Maurie Street chats to us about canola diseases & fungicide applications, based on trials GOA has conducted. -What diseases may be an issue in 2024 & their lifecycle. -Fungicides: to spray or not to spray. -Is spraying economic or not?

Listen to Maurie Street talk us through the work GOA has done on P placement in canola.....the results might surprise you! -Results based on over 16 trials on alternative P placement. -P fertilizer with the seed can decrease germination by up to 80%. -Placing P on the soil surface - is it available to the canola plant? Sure is!

Listen to our chat with GOA's Ben O'Brien as he talks us through: -The impacts of plant population on crown rot. -What part N plays. -Varietal interactions In low-moderate yield conditions

Listen to our chat with Rohan Brill regarding whether we should we be spraying canola in lower yielding areas with fungicides. Much of the information Rohan presents comes from joint GRDC trial work between Brill Ag & GOA. We cover: -problem diseases -correct timing of fungicides -is control economic? -the best bang for your buck!

GOA's Maurie Street walks us through how to be more effective at delivering the dose to the ryegrass plant. The impact of: -Water quality -Plant growth stage -Nozzle selection -Resistance in controlling hard to kill ryegrass.

In this conversation with GOA's Maurie Street we discuss: How to manage nutrition in a uncertain yearAlternative methods of P applicationDo you REALLY need to put on heaps of S.
