Wheat research gets big boost

By Jim Smalley   The Canadian Wheat Research Coalition, composed of the 3 prairie wheat commissions, has committed 2 million dollars over 5 years to a wheat breeding program at the University of Alberta. The investment will fund research with a focus on developing new Canadian Western Red Spring and Canadian Prairie Spring red wheat varieties. A top objective is to develop three to five registered wheat varieties with early maturity, shorter straw stalk, and resistance to stripe rust and Fusarium head blight. These are key priorities of northern Alberta’s parkland region, where the program is located. Since 2013, the University of Alberta wheat breeding program has registered 14 wheat varieties.

Sask Wheat encourages farmers to participate in the Canada Grain Act consultations

By Jim Smalley Feb 18, 2021 5:26 AM The Saskatchewan Wheat Development Commission is encouraging farmers to get involved in the review of the Canada Grain Act. The chair of Sask. Wheat, Brett Halstead, says farmers need to make their voice heard during the consultation process because the grain act has a direct impact on their farming operations. Halstead says the review is long overdue and covers such important areas as grain variety classes, producer payment protection, data reporting and grain grading. Halstead says farmers have until April 30th to provide feed back on the internet to the Canadian Grain Commission, the agency overseeing the Canada Grain Act.

Seanset: Redondo Beach grieves Sean Denhart

Sean Denhart lit up the diamond at Seahawk Stadium and the lives of all who knew him by Rachel Reeves There’s a #9 on the pitcher’s mound at Seahawk Stadium. It’s a salute to Sean Denhart, a proud Redondo local who spent some of his most treasured moments there, on that diamond. He died suddenly of heart failure on Dec. 30, two months after the Dodgers won the World Series. He was 32 years old. When Denhart would drive past the baseball field on Prospect and Vincent with Taylor McBride, his girlfriend of five years, he’d proudly point it out. “Babe,” he’d say, “there’s my office.” She teased him every time, about being in his thirties and reveling in the days of glory, when he was a star pitcher on Redondo Union High School’s varsity team and known in the South Bay for throwing a fastball 94 miles per hour. Her sarcasm was affectionate, as theirs mostly was.
