A rosehip variety called AAC Sylvia-Arlene was development at the research centre which was aimed at producing a higher antioxidant than normal. The AAC Sylvia Arlene is intended for commercial hips production in the Maritime and cooling growing regions.[2]
A model of critical phosphorus concentration in the shoot biomass of wheat was conducted in order to assess the level of crop nutrition. The objectives were to help validate an existing model (Pc = 0.94 + 0.107N) in the shoot biomass.[3]
A new model was developed to gauge the nitrogen load in estuaries. The tests were conducted using LEACHN simulations and GIS based land data, this method proved to be successful in gauging the nutrient flow in the surrounded groundwater.[4]
