Provincial insect specialist says to "be vigilant" for pests during 2026 season

There was significant spraying of canola for bertha armyworm in central and northern regions of Saskatchewan last year and there may be issues again in 2026, says Dr. James Tansey, provincial insect specialist with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture. Tansey spoke Tuesday during a webinar sponsored by the Ministry of Ag. The Ministry captured male moths in traps at 290 site locations during mid and late July, Some of the hot spots were places like Herschel, Landis and Sonningdale west of Saskatoon, as well as Nokomis and Jansen south and east of Saskatoon.

That’s a problem because China wants to import raw oats rather than milled oats from its suppliers. “The thing with China, they have a lot of milling capacity…. They want to take the raw oats so they can use their own mills.” China’s phytosanitary issues with Canadian oats is a bit of mystery because Chinese officials won’t specify the pro
