Lentils a viable option in WA

Host: | Date: 22 Jan 2020

More about this podcast

Western Australia’s Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development senior researcher Mark Seymour and Esperance Port Zone grain grower Ron Longbottom feature in this podcast about Lentils.

In WA growers have been cautious about including this pulse in their cropping program because of variable yields and harvesting challenges.

However new lentil varieties and modern harvester fronts have made the lentil a more viable option in cropping systems.
