1. Wheat Zinc Nutrition: Agronomic Biofortification That Delivers Yield and Better Grain Nutrition

Low Zn availability in calcareous soils is a common issue in the Canadian prairies, where much of the wheat is exported, making Canada one of the world’s largest wheat exporters. Globally, 19% of the population, mostly pregnant women, infants, and children, suffers from Zn deficiency, highlighting the need to enhance Zn bioavailability in wheat grain. Agronomic biofortification offers a promising strategy to improve grain nutrient density while optimizing plant health and development. While... M. Proulx, X. Gao

2. Optimizing Nitrogen Inputs in Barley Production in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota

Nitrogen (N) management plays a critical role in balancing yield and malting quality of two-row spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grown in the Northern Great Plains. In 2025, a field experiment was conducted across seven locations in North Dakota, Montana, and Idaho to evaluate the effect of N fertilizer source on barley yield, protein, and kernel plump. Treatments included the commercially available N sources urea, enhanced efficiency urea, urea ammonium nitrate, calcium ammonium... B. Goettl, . Souza, J. Spackman, J. Jensen
