@plantagguelph faculty have been hard at work & are releasing 6 new dry bean varieties this fall for #commercialization. Among them are 2 white navy beans, 1 cranberry bean & 3 pinto beans.

Details on the licensing availability can be found here: https://t.co/4ilDZA7L0i

@megnmoran @OntBeanGrowers @greggles212 @cliflyn7 @psikkema1 @LichenOnRock There were two strip plots of Candycane to look at plant type etc, but we didn't get feedback. However, the GoBeans data is quite consistent, over 4 years in multiple locations.

@OntBeanGrowers @greggles212 @megnmoran @cliflyn7 @psikkema1 @LichenOnRock Greg: I've attached photographs and yield data from GoBeans for OAC cranberry lines.

@BECavanagh @OntBeanGrowers Yes, we have had difficulty getting inoculant for beans in some years for our research in this area.

[ppauls @ppauls2]

@BECavanagh @OntBeanGrowers Barry: yes inoculant work, as well as nitrogen application work and variety selection work. We have found some varieties that can fix up to 70% of their nitrogen. #BeanTalk21

@Jamie_Larsen @OntBeanGrowers GoBeans is the site to go to for information on variety performance in Ontario. https://t.co/Xmk5OzZcaY
We have some very interesting crans (OAC Firestripe, OAC Candycane) that have yet to find a commercial home
