4 A comparatively new and promising leguminous crop for Indiana farmers is the. This plant has been successfully grown in different parts of the state and at several points farther north in the U.S., and will.

Foliar Mgt (over locations) prevented brown spot infection and increased seed mass and yield due to active leaf area.
