BASF Introduces New InVigor Gold Canola Seed Hybrid for the 2027 Season

By BASF|June 4, 2026

BASF introduces InVigor® Gold L322, the first hybrid released in BASF’s breakthrough innovation in canola seed. Designed to unlock the full genetic potential of canola quality Brassica juncea and expand U.S. canola acreage, InVigor Gold L322 will first be available for Montana in 2027, pending final regulatory approvals.

InVigor Gold hybrid canola seed expands the trusted InVigor portfolio by delivering consistent performance and yield stability across a wider range of growing conditions as shown in BASF’s field trials. Designed to thrive in more arid conditions with higher heat and on lower organic matter soils, InVigor Gold L322 helps growers succeed where canola has not traditionally fit.

“InVigor Gold L322 represents a major step forward in helping farmers do the biggest job on Earth by expanding where canola can successfully grow in the U.S.,” said Albre Brown, Canola Marketing Manager for BASF Agricultural Solutions. “InVigor Gold L322 is a key addition to BASF’s impressive line of InVigor hybrids, the most trusted canola seed on the market for over 25 years.”

With earlier maturity allowing the crop to flower earlier and finish faster, InVigor Gold L322 is well suited for warmer and drier environments and represents the earliest maturing hybrid in the InVigor portfolio to date. Combined with native pod shatter tolerance and LibertyLink® weed control, InVigor Gold L322 will provide Montana growers with a new rotational option that adds flexibility, profitability and whole farm productivity.
