Faba bean and field pea varieties and management - 2012 results Westmere locations
Aims

To investigate the adaptability of a range of field pea varieties to varying sowing dates, crop topping and disease control.

Key messages
  • Early sowing, concurrent with previous research, was highest yielding in 2012
  • There appear to be several promising new varieties available for southern Victoria, offering a range of grain types and forage options, associated with excellent yield potential.
  • Crop topping results highlight the importance for growers and advisors to be aware of both weed and crop growth stages, otherwise significant grain yield loss could occur.
