Project Feature
Effect of extreme heat during hybrid seed canola pollination on pollen nutrient status and pesticude residue
Since 2016, over 28% of Alberta's honeybee colonies have died each winter, threatening the sustainability of not only the beekeeping and honey industries, but also the production of fruit and seed crops pollinated by bees.
Project Feature
Building a sustainable and resilient sugar beet industry through diversification
Sugar beets are an excellent feedstock for a myriad of other uses including renewable fuels, animal feed, biopolymers, and alternative proteins. Alberta Sugar Beet Growers (ASBG) is piloting a concept of a plant that would utilize sugar beets and convert them into a juice that would act as a feedstock for these other uses through a variety of studies.
