The current “Queen of Lupins” in #Alberta! @pulsechickAB @LakelandCommCol @RDARAlberta

@wr7619 @RDARAlberta @APGresearch Yes. Narrow leaf blue lupin.

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

Beautiful crop of lupin ready to desiccate soon. They survived the heat quite well. They might even do as well as the peas. The peas didn’t like the heat. @RDARAlberta @APGresearch

Seeding started on the Davidson farm yesterday with Boregine blue lupin. We’ll figure this crop out yet! @APGresearch @RDARAlberta @djdavidson66

[John Kowalchuk🧢 @kowalchukfarms1]

Very thankful for our Saskatchewan friends so we had power through the night!

For those of you that don’t know, without power our furnaces don’t blow, cattle waterers freeze and block heaters don’t heat!

@SheriStrydhorst @SStrydhorst Awesome Sheri! Looking good in that seat.🙂 I too love driving the combine.

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

Harvesting some lupin research plots today. Plots looked so good this year! @APGresearch

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

@abfarmdawg Which fungicide is the middle strip, if you don't mind me asking. TIA

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

@BrianABCS @ricktlu I “met” him yesterday. I think that guy looks an awfully lot like Phil Thomas. Coincidence?

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

I am now officially a member of the International Lupin Association, aka the Lupin Fan (Fun) club. Fun? Maybe not. But definitely interesting and have a lot of potential. 😉

[ILC 2023 @ilc2023]

LUPIN FUN CLUB!

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

@dbshepert @APGresearch That’s interesting Don! I too had some yesterday. Mango and Strawberry made by Prolupin, Made with Luv. Add lupin spread, sauce, flakes, yogurt and smoothie. All very good!

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

Lupins, lupins everywhere in Bocksee, Germany! This crop has so much potential and I am learning so much on how to make this crop successful in Alberta. International Lupin Conference 2023. #ILC2023 @APGresearch

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

Lupin research plots in Namao seeded May 12. Looking good despite dry conditions. @APGresearch @RDARAlberta

[Robyne Bowness Davidson @pulsechickAB]

June 6 on the Farm. Lupins looking good but really need a drink. 3-4 leaf stage. Field is really clean thanks to Edge application (and dry conditions). Applied metribuzin at 110g/ac, 10 gallons/ac water. @APGresearch @APGExtension @djdavidson66
