Abstract:SUM M ARYOptimal temperature and soil moisture conditions for germination of spring turnip rape (Brassica rapa L. subsp. oleifera DC.) are not often realized in Finland. New tools for better establishment, such as water-storing polymers, could ensure a good start for yield formation. Because technologies in field cropping must be cost effective and easy to carry out, the amounts of polymers applied per hectare should be small. After recording non-significant effects of granulated polymers under field condition… Show more
