Crystal is a new variety of large-seeded, bright green mungbean.
Crystal has the best available combined suite of resistance to Powdery Mildew, Tan Spot and Halo Blight among current varieties.
Crystal out yields all current varieties:
– Emerald by 20% and White Gold by 4% in DPI&F replicated trials
Crystal has superior grain quality characteristics compared with current varieties.
• In five years of evaluation trials, Crystal has demonstrated the most robust grain quality and colour over a wide range of seasonal conditions
Crystal is broadly adapted, suitable for all mungbean production areas and offers a strong agronomic package.
Crystal is well suited to high yielding situations where lodging can be a major constraint to yield such as in irrigated crops.
Crystal holds its pods high on the bush helping to increase harvestability
