Early-season growth and stress resilience are key determinants of canola productivity, especially under increasingly variable environmental conditions. Vivent electrophysiology sensors offer a continuous, non-destructive method to monitor real-time physiological activity by detecting electrical signals transmitted along the plant stem. These signals encode information related to plant status, nutrient dynamics, and water relations.
In this study, we evaluated nutrient efficiency and water status in response to climate in four canola hybrids (BASF InVigor L330PC, L340PC, L345PC, L356PC) monitored from June 26th to August 22nd 2025 in Richardson, Saskatchewan. The trial took place under alternating warm–dry and cool–humid conditions, creating a natural sequence.
The poster was part of the 3-day Canola Week in Saskatchewan, where it was presented to scientists, agronomists, and producers.
