Why is everyone talking about CDC Westgate? 

It's the first new forage oat in over a decade, and it's already turning heads with exceptional height, biomass, and forage yield potential. 

See why it stands above the rest:

@PierrePoilievre Many talk about the wealth transfer from the Boomer generation. The transfer is increasingly going to scammers, much of which leaves the country. Unfortunately this issue resonates with many Canadian families.

Decided to spray some weeds in my #fpgenetics hybrid fall rye last night. Closing over fast and loving life with all the moisture we’ve had. It survived winter with only a few drowned and winter scalded spots. I think this could be a big deal going forward.

[Nathan Penner @NPenn904]

@Lean1Mclean @Stampseeds @stampgreg @FPGenetics Haha, what can I say, I can’t stay away from good rye! Doesn’t matter where it’s growing.

@Stampseeds @FPGenetics @stampgreg Can’t beat a great tailgate discussion surrounded by an excellent field of Cossani.

Cleaning up some foundation CDC Anson oats tonight. Should be the hottest variety in 2025. Great job for this snowy rainy night. @FPGenetics
