Winter Canola

Looking at trying some winter or maybe even spring canola. I worry a little with the spring canola blooming & filling okay IF the timing is similar to soybeans. Soybeans struggled to fill in August here due to the heat & dryness.

Winter canola looks like a safer play but still a new crop to me. Any advice on either one?

yeah same in my part of nd. more and more acres are going in. not sure how farmers are making it on 25-35 bu. soybeans. and you have double the risk. need rain in August ( which ruins your other crops) 2nd early snow. to risky for me.
