Start Date:
1991
Project Length:
3 Years
Objectives:
To develop a production system that will allow seed production from non-dormant alfalfa cultivars in western Canada. To compare cultivar differences for seed production during the establishment year and measure characteristics that influence plant growth and establishment. To determine the economic potential of non-dormant seed production by establishing production scale experiments
