To examine the suitability of elite commercial and unreleased winter canola cultivars for Hyper-yielding regions.
• Winter canola yielded less than spring canola at the same site. On average, winter canola produced 2.08 t/ha compared to spring canola of 3.5-3.9 t/ha.
• Captain CL was the highest yielding variety with a yield of 2.3 t/ha.
• Oil content ranged from 44.5 to 47.5% with Captain CL also ranked high for oil concentration.
