The OWPMB supports agronomy research that focuses on breeding new varieties for improved agronomic traits, performance trials to assess different varieties’ strengths and weaknesses and projects that look at different agronomic management of wheat to improve yield and economics.

Current Projects include (click on the project to find out more):

• SMART Initiatives for Increasing Wheat and Soybean Performance in Ontario
• Agronomic Options for Wheat
• Weed Management in Wheat
• Understanding interactions of winter wheat herbicides with cold temperatures and fungicides to manage yield and quality
• Problem Weeds in Soybeans, Wheat, and Corn - 2007-2011
• Gains to be made from long-term rotation trial at Ridgetown
