Canola has surfaced as a tremendous rotational crop for winter wheat here in the southern Great Plains- and Oklahoma State University Extension Grain Marketing Economist Dr. Kim Anderson says that for a variety of reasons, it's a tool that winter wheat producers need to seriously consider utilizing on some of their most weed infested acres. In this weekend's SUNUP as produced by the OSU Ag Communications team, Kim Anderson explains to Austin Moore the economic advantages and disadvantages of a wheat-canola rotation.
