To investigate yields of various lentils established across Victoria by Pulse Breeding Australia and the National Variety Testing program.

Key messages
  • Ascochyta blight- and botrytis grey mould-resistant red lentil variety, Nipper, available for higher rainfall areas.
  • Green lentil, Boomer, available for farmers but must be harvested early to maximise yield and seed quality.
  • Good lentil management is beneficial in most years, irrespective of rainfall.
