Trial 89KA11

Location: Great Southern Agricultural Institute - Farm Paddock B15

Main objectives of this trial was to evaluate the lines for their resistance to blue-green aphid, redlegged earthmite and lucerne flea. However since the site lacked a substantial infestation of blue-green aphid and lucerne flea, our efforts were concentrated on redlegged earthmite resistance.
