There is a mixed opinion and some research being done in this area. Pruning Haskap can be done, but how it is done and what results you will see and how long it will last are questions that have several answers.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Experience has showed that pruning the bottom of the plants after harvesting them will result in a lot of re growth in the same area in the following years (not very effective). Pruning the heavier wood in the centre of the plants results in new branches with more fruit and it's more supple, less likely to break in the next couple of years. Pruning all the edges fairly evenly, results in lots of new growth although not necessarily a lot more fruit in the following year . </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Some opinions suggest that pruning the bottom to bring the fruit higher does not work. Pruning the middle opens it up and gives you more fruit (don;t do more than 25%). Pruning all over is too much work and plant ends up too bushy.</div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">Have any tent
caterpillars affecting your plants? One of our colleagues treated some colonies
with detergent and water which killed them effectively - especially with a
little cooking oil mixed in. Malathion works too BUT is not good for bees at all,
so not the first choice in products for this application. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 5pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;">Bacillus thuringiensis
kurstaki (Btk) is a certified organic pesticide derived from bacillus thuringiensis
(Bt). It is both bee friendly and very effective when caterpillars are 1/2 inch
to 1 inch long . It achieves this by freezing their intestines and starving
them.<br />
Fortunately for us, Haskap is their least preferred food and virtually
indigestible to them as the leaves carry their own natural pesticide. That
won't prevent them from eventually eating it but it is gratifying to know we
are giving them a tummy ache. </span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "wingdings"; font-size: 9.5pt;">J</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt;"> .

Dr. Stanislaw Pluta led a delegation from Poland at this year's Haskap Day. He is a researcher at the <a href="http://www.esto-project.eu/index.php?id=72">Research Insititute of Horticulture</a> located at Skierniewice. Here is a link to one of his black currant presentations (PDF file): <a href="http://fruittechcentre.eu/LVAI/LVAI_lib/Conference_2012/PLUTA%20-%20Recent%20Blackcurrant%20production%20in%20Poland%202012%20LOTWA.pdf">Blackcurrant Production and Breeding in Poland</a>. He expressed how interested growers in Poland are in haskap and spoke briefly in the afternoon. It's nice to see this international interest.

At Haskap Day 2015 Colleen Christiansen outlined the Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP) which offers federally funded governmental grants to qualified haskap growers/marketers. She also highlighted several important provincial programs to which haskap growers may apply as well. Here is an outline of what she presented along with links. Thank you, Colleen!<br />

<i><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">There are a number of government programs that small and medium sized businesses can access in Canada. The Government of Canada lists all areas of support on the following website </span><a href="http://www.canadabusiness.ca/eng/page/contact/#" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">http://www.canadabusiness.ca/eng/page/contact/#</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">. In Saskatchewan there is a federal/provincial agency called "Square One" which supports small business start ups as well as growth of existing small businesses. Square One has recently created a list of all programs available to entrepreneurs in Saskatchewan </span><a href="http://squareonesask.ca/skbizgrid/" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">http://squareonesask.ca/skbizgrid/</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">.</span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The Industrial Research Assistance Program (IRAP) of the National Research Council of Canada has two methods to help small and medium sized business in Canada. One program is the Concierge Service </span><a href="http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/irap/concierge/index.html" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/irap/concierge/index.html</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">. This is a single access point that anyone can call to talk to someone who is knowledgeable about all of the programs that exist in Canada. The second method is through working with Industrial Technology Advisors to connect with the funding programs of IRAP </span><a href="http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/irap/services/index.html" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/irap/services/index.html</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"> </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">In Saskatchewan the Ministry of Agriculture also has a program to assist small business called SAVI</span><a href="http://www.agriculture.gov.sk.ca/GF2-SAVI" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">http://www.agriculture.gov.sk.ca/GF2-SAVI</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;"> </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">Although the list of government programs is long and it may seem confusing, each program has been designed for a reason. Each program has specific goals and rules regarding eligibility of projects and expenses within projects. The best plan is to contact someone who works for the program to find out what is the best for you and your company according to the goals and plans you have for your company. </span><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><br style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">If you have any questions about IRAP, please don't hesitate to contact me.</span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">In the same fashion that the haskap berry is new to our tables, so likewise is a haskap cookbook new to our kitchens...making it most likely the first of its kind in the world! And being so made it a challenge in its own right to produce. Since it is still a relatively unknown fruit, a cookbook that highlights the joys of using it is by definition difficult to write. Not only are recipes difficult to find, but the inherent puzzle of actually finding out how other ingredients interact with haskap, or even of proving the submitted recipes, are themselves at the root of this challenge. Add to this their desire to accommodate gluten-free and low-/no-sugar diets and Loretta Bors </span>and<span style="font-family: inherit;"> Lil Sawatzky have done a wonderful job. Illustrated and with fun-facts added, their <i>haskaptions</i> bring recipes to life on the page, even as the results of these recipes will being flavour and zest to your fare!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Its contents include: <i>Appetizers/Sauces/Jams, Main Dishes, Side Dishes, Desserts, and Methods/Preserving/Helpful Hints</i>. There is</span> a forward by James Dawson. 49 pp.; spiral bound.<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The cost is $15 + shipping, and you can order a copy by contacting Loretta Bors at: </span><a href="mailto:lorettabors@hotmail.com">lorettabors@hotmail.com</a><br />
