To determine the optimum sowing date for lentil to reduce effects from abiotic stresses and increase grain yield. These experiments also aimed to identify phenological drivers of crop development in lentil and determine which varieties are best adapted to the target environments.
• There was diversity in phenology between varieties.
• Early sowing extended the crop vegetative period, but increased exposure to frost damage during flowering.
• Dry conditions severely limited lentil grain yield in 2019, but favoured early maturing varieties, particularly with mid May sowing.
• High yielding lentil varieties were PBA AceA, PBA BoltA and PBA Hurricane XTA at Wagga Wagga, and PBA Hallmark XTA and PBA BoltA at Leeton. NipperA demonstrated broad adaptation at Wagga Wagga.
