				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every few years, the snow comes early, and growers are left to harvest their canola, corn or soybeans in the snow or after the snow melts. In fact, it’s not unusual to see a drop in temperature from 10 C to –10 C in one week in the fall on the Prairies. This leaves two options for growers: heated-air drying or leaving the crop in the field.</p>
<p>This is what Fuji Jian, associate professor at the University of Manitoba, presented in the opening session of Top Crop Manager’s virtual In the Bin: Grain Storage Seminar in early July. <span data-contrast="auto">With a strong research background in post-harvest grain quality, grain physical properties, grain drying and aeration, grain handling, sensor development and more, Jian shared the results from four studies to provide clarity on canola storage and aeration strategies.</span></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Researchers from the University of Manitoba want to know about bug problems in stored grain.</p>
<p>It’s the fourth year of a Canadian Centre for Grain Storage Research project on grain pests. The centre is located at the university and the insect research project is part of the Prairie Bio Vigilance network.</p>
<p>The network hopes to proactively identify invasive species of pests, disease and weeds across the Prairies, facilitating quicker response. Research is wholly based on farm volunteer samples.</p>
