To provide growers with information about break crop options available to them. 

Key messages
  • In 2009, field peas were the only pulse crop to produce measurable yields in the trials run at Condobolin and Euabalong.
  • All field pea varieties produced similar yields at Condobolin.
  • Harvest was difficult due to stunted plant height and lodging.
  • Sowing pulse crops early is essential to maximise yield.
