Canary Seed

CDC Lumio

CDC Lumio is the highest-yielding glabrous canary seed available. CDC Lumio is a mid-height variety with excellent standability. In 2022 high-yielding scenarios, it still managed to come off with minimal lodging compared to Keet which had significant lodging. Overall Lumio is a great variety for producers who don’t want to grow a hairy variety but are still looking to maximize yield and harvestability.

Flax

CDC Rowland

CDC Rowland is the pinnacle of fl ax varieties, boasting the highest yield potential of any other variety on the market. It thrives in a range of environments and exhibits moderate resistance to both powdery mildew and Fusarium wilt. Additionally, it features outstanding straw strength, ensuring it stays upright even in high-yielding conditions. It is slightly longer in maturity compared to some of the other popular fl ax varieties, thus we recommend early planting. Notably, CDC Rowland is characterized by its signifi cantly larger seed size, adding even more value to this exceptional variety.
