JADE alfalfa from NC+
The latest Independent tests confirm new JADE alfalfa is a winner! An ex
cellent disease package allows JADE to produce extremely high yields and
superior forage quality. With Its wide area of adaption, JADE alfalfa Is destined
to become an industry standard.
oHigh Yields
Alfalfa yield trials conducted by lowa State
University in 1988 and 1989 show JADE is
clearly number one. JADE outylelded Perry
by 17%, Saranac by 24% and Vernal by 40%
in 1988. And JADE finished on top again in
1989 with another outstanding yield perfor
mance.
Forage Quality
In addition to high yields JADE alfalfa is an
excellent forage producer with a high leaf to
stem ratio. Jade breaks dormancy in early
spring and recovers quickly after cutting.
Disease Resistance
Winter hardy JADE exhibits high resistance
to bacterial wilt, phytophthora root rot and
fusarium wilt. JADE is also resistant to ver
ticillium wilt and anthracnose and has good
tolerance to leaf hoppers.
