“…Field experiments were conducted at Brandon in 2010and 2012, at West Nipissing in 2012and at Normandin in 2010and at Normandin in , 2011and at Normandin in , and 2012. Two hybrid canola cultivars were grown in these experiments: InVigor 5440 was used at Brandon and West Nipissing, and InVigor 5030LL (5030LL hereafter) at Normandin.…”

Simulated Canola Yield Responses to Climate Change and Adaptation in Canada

A projected future warmer climate implies signifi cant impacts on canola (Brassica napus L.) production in Canada. We aimed to use a modeling approach to simulate climate change impacts on canola yield in Canada and to evaluate potential adaptation measures. Th e CSM-CROPGRO-Canola model was used to simulate the responses of canola to the projected climate change at Brandon on the Prairies, and West Nipissing and Normandin in eastern Canada. Future climate scenarios for the near (2041-2070) and distant (2071-2100) future under two representative concentration pathways (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) were developed based on climate change simulations by a regional climate model CanRCM4. Seeding dates were estimated from air temperature, precipitation, and soil moisture to account for the potential of earlier seeding as an adaptation measure. Compared to the baseline climate, simulated seed yield reduction was 42, 21, and 24% in the near future and of 37, 27, and 23% in the distant future, under RCP4.5, respectively for Brandon, West Nipissing, and Normandin. A larger reduction was simulated under RCP8.5, especially in the distant future at Brandon and West Nipissing. Th e simulated seed yield reduction was associated with increases in heat and water stresses under rainfed conditions with current N fertilizer application rates. Coping with heat and water stresses is a big challenge for canola production in Canada under the projected climate change, especially on the Canadian Prairies.

“…R apeseed (Brassica spp., including canola) is the second largest oilseed crop across the globe (Yadava et al, 2012). Th e global harvested area of rapeseed has doubled during the past three decades and canola predominates in the production of rapeseed (Fischer et al, 2014).…”

“…The oil content in the released genotypes was varying from 28 to 30%, which needs an increase of 5-8% in this crop (Yadava et al, 2012). In order to increase the content of oil seeds, plant breeders have attempted to reduce the testa tissue through breeding selection.…”

Due to the rapid development of the global economy, fossil oil is widely used, leading to its depletion and gradual deterioration of the global environment, including global warming, the greenhouse effect, fog, and haze. Therefore, many researchers have been interested in studying alternative fuels in an attempt to develop an eco-friendly fuel to replace traditional fuel and solve the above environmental problems. Biodiesel is a renewable and eco-friendly fuel that is the most promising alternative fuel for diesel engines, and a significant amount of research and development has focused on biodiesel. Canola oil biodiesel (COB) is one type of biodiesel, and it has an advantage in oil production per unit area compared with other biodiesels. This paper summarizes and reviews studies related to the use of COB in different diesel engines under a variety of operating conditions. We focus on evaluating the combustion and emission characteristics of COB based on a large number of papers (including our previous studies). In addition, this paper serves as a valuable reference for in-depth studies of COB use in diesel engines, as it covers the topic from the production of COB to its use in diesel engines.
