- Intervention effect Early-seeded canola without the polymer coat had a 58% lower plant density than late-fall-seeded canola.
- Intervention effect The polymer coat on early-seeded canola increased plant density by 80% compared with uncoated seed.
- Intervention effect Without the polymer seed coat, canola yield was 42% lower when seeded early rather than late in fall.
- Intervention effect Without the polymer seed coat, dockage was 6% higher when canola was seeded early rather than late in fall.
- Intervention effect Increased pod production from early-fall-seeded uncoated canola only partially compensated for the canola yield loss.
- Observation Cultivar interactions were generally not agronomically important.
- Recommendation Polymer seed coatings allow producers to seed herbicide-tolerant canola earlier in fall.
