Martin Scanlon, dean of the faculty of agricultural and food sciences at the U of M said canola research runs through the entirety of the university’s agriculture faculty, from soil, breeding pathology, crushing and animal science. The U of M also does canola research in food and human nutritional science, bio-system engineering and the nutritional value of canola co-products like meal.
“Essentially it is a crop that almost every researcher is touching on,” said Scanlon.
