CPS Research and DevelopmentDriving consistent, quality products for western Canadian growers

At CPS, research and development is the heart of our work. It’s where we start and it’s how we continually improve and expand our seed offering. Our extensive Research and Development program includes dedicated researchers committed to providing consistent, high quality seed products that meet the needs of growers across Western Canada.

Our purpose is to breed and supply a pipeline of elite varieties for Proven® Seed. We start with the best germplasm in order to deliver the best seed products with the best traits. We put every variety and hybrid through rigorous testing before making them available through the CPS network of retailers.

Canola is a focal point of our world class research program. Cereal research continues to be a key component of our program, and we’re increasing our work in corn and soybeans as those acres continue to rise in Western Canada. And every year, we test these products in more than 60 farmer-run Field Performance Checks and Local Performance Checks, to bring local data to farmers.

The CPS Research and Development team has a strong history of continuous Canadian research – building momentum for two decades. Our team includes more than 50 dedicated staff in Canada and Australia – many with more than 15 years with our research program – plus more than 25 seasonal employees from top agricultural schools in Canada.

Cornerstones of Proven SeedOur efforts at Proven Seed are based on a foundation of four cornerstones:

1. Plant breeding research

We invest in research that helps growers consistently produce bigger and better crops. Our Canadian breeding and screening team works with global research partners to access the very best germplasm.

2. Local performance testing

We extensively test and evaluate seed varieties across the Prairies through our Proven Performance Check program to identify the ones best suited to local conditions. Local data results, together with the expert advice of our Proven Seed agronomists, give you the information you need to make the best seed selection for your farm.

3. Seed quality control

Seed production is a priority. We work with CSGA growers to produce, clean, condition and test our seed to ensure the highest level of quality control. We test every seed lot extensively for disease, purity and germination – to give you confidence in your seed investment.

4. New market opportunities

With strong connections to processors and exporters in Canada and around the world, we see emerging needs and respond quickly to fill future market demands. We work with the very best in the industry to deliver the strongest genetics in our Proven Seed line.

2

Each season, more and more canola hybrids are introduced to western Canadian farmers – and it’s not always easy to choose the best product for your farming operation. That’s why CPS rigorously tests these products – to help you make the right decision for your farm.

CPS offers canola hybrids to suit a wide range of growing conditions, with early, medium and full-season hybrids available. We also offer hybrids with the standability and disease traits to suit your operation.

We’re moving forages forwardAt CPS, we’re improving the agronomics and productivity of forage crops to deliver top-performing options for you. Hardiness, yield, regrowth potential and tolerance are some of the areas we focus on to deliver consistent, high quality forage seed. And like everything from Proven Seed, our forages are backed by expert agronomic advice, industry leading research and local performance testing.

Our relationships with leading forage genetics suppliers give us, and you, access to exciting new forage seed options. And as CPS – a world leader in crop inputs – we also evaluate new seed enhancement products to help move forage production even farther forward. Our contacts with key western Canadian forage exporters help us ensure our forage seed meets the needs of this industry.

PROVEN PERFORMANCE

CPS is continuing to invest in research and agronomy to support Western Canada’s forage industry:

• Evaluating new equipment to test soil salinity and create management plans that use forages

to limit the effects of soil salinity

• Expanding sorghum hybrids for silage and grazing warm season grass options

• Testing seed enhancement and coating options for improved seedling health and

forage productivity

• Using forage legumes to increase pasture productivity and rejuvenation

• Testing winter survival, yield and forage quality for new advanced forage varieties

• Offering NutriFiber™ from forage leaders at Barenbrug USA

Get the most from your cropsLoveland Products help producers “get growing” with the highest quality, best performing and value-driven products available today. A longstanding commitment to extensive research and development allows us to bring new, unique chemistries to the marketplace. The result is a portfolio of seed treatment, plant nutrition, fertilizer, adjuvant and crop protection products offering growers everything they need to maximize crop health and yields.

The Loveland brand is available from CPS retail locations across Western Canada.

Awaken® ST cereal seed treatment puts nutrients where a germinating crop needs them: on the seed. It’s a new nutrition-loaded, growth-enhancing patented formulation for progressive cereal growers wanting maximum yield and return on investment.

Establish® liquid for peas and lentils offers a unique plant signal technology to enhance the crop’s ability to develop earlier nodulation and speed up nitrogen fixation. Plants also experience better root development for improved nutrient and water uptake. The result? Better plant growth and higher, more consistent yields.

Our line of Black Label® high-phosphate fertilizers have a patented formulation that protects applied phosphate (P) from becoming tied up with calcium or other nutrients. There are three Black Label formulations:

• Black Label Zn – the most flexible Black Label formulation where maximum P content is required

• Black Label Canola – designed for post-emergent applications to canola and other crops requiring additional boron

• Black Label Cereal – Created for post-emergent applications to wheat and other crops requiring additional copper

Adjuvants – the Leci-Tech® breakthrough. Leci-Tech is a unique technology that reduces drift, improves droplet retention and delivers quicker uptake by plant tissue with no impact on crop safety. The patented lecithin-based technology is available in a range of Loveland product formulations, including:

• LI 700® – non-ionic, low-foaming surfactant reduces off-target spray drift and lowers spray water pH

• Liberate® – an uptake-enhancing surfactant blend for use with pesticides that recommend a non-ionic surfactant

• MSO® – methylated seed oil for use with post-emergent herbicides that consistently demonstrates increased penetration over conventional crop oil concentrates

• Valid® – drift control agent combined with an integrated defoaming agent for the best drift control available, plus superior droplet adhesion and deposition
