    Boosting canola crop value with increased protein and lower fiber

> Canadian researchers at the National Research Council, working with Corteva Agriscience, used conventional mutagenesis to develop more than 50 canola lines with higher protein, lower fiber and fewer anti-nutritional compounds. Current canola meal contains about 37% protein.
