Summary:In a 4-year grazing trial, lambs were grazed at 2 stocking rates on 4 aphid-resistant varieties with Sirosa phalaris and Hunter River lucerne as controls. Although aphids were almost absent and Hunter River was at its full potential, all the test varieties yielded lamb gains at least equal to those on Hunter River and better than those on Sirosa.
