Abstract
Three spring oil-seed rape cultivars were drilled on five dates during 1979 and 1980. Delayed drilling (1) reduced seed yield, (2) increased the main stem contribution to seed production, and (3) increased the percentage of damaged pods at harvest. The results indicated that cultivars similar to those used in this trial should be drilled between the 3rd week of March and mid-April.
