To evaluate the performance of new and existing field pea and lupin varieties in the HRZ at our Hamilton and Westmere sites.
Key messages
There were no significant differences in yield between field pea or lupin varieties in 2014.
The extremely dry spring may have reduced varietal differences in the trials.
Pea varieties yielded 2.5 t/ha to 2.8 t/ha while lupin varieties yielded 1.7 t/ha to 2.5 t/ha.
