Where does the data come from?
Data for McPIQ is obtained from small plot trials grown annually at sites located around Manitoba. Wheat, barley, oats, canola and flax are tested each year at most sites. Fababeans, field beans, triticale, field peas, durum, sunflowers, soybeans, lentils and winter wheat are tested at fewer sites. Mustard, canaryseed and polish canola are not tested every year.

McPIQ On-Line was developed by the Manitoba Crop Variety Evaluation Team (MCVET) with financial support from Agri-Food Research and Development Initiative (ARDI)
