The biggest production problem faced by farmers growing canaryseed is the year-to-year variability in seed yield. The cause of this fluctuation in yield is not known. One aspect that has not been addressed is the effect of K and S on yield. An experiment was designed to evaluate K and S additions at five locations in Saskatchewan.
