The project successfully demonstrated various pulse crops, including fenugreek, faba bean, mung bean, lupin, cow pea, dry beans, field pea, maple pea, chickpeas, soybeans, and lentils, at eight AgriARM sites across Saskatchewan.

Inoculants and registered herbicide options were limited for some of the novel pulse crops. Therefore, nitrogen fertilizer, hand-weeding and/or no in-crop weed control were conducted at the sites when necessary.

The project provided important insights into the adaptation of various pulse crops throughout the province. Some crop types grew well, but others had issues with emergence, pod fill, maturing before frost, and feeding damage from deer and rabbits. Multiple sites had harvest issues, with pods too low to the ground or no recommended combine setting available.
