CAMPEDA demonstrates a prostrate to semi-erect growth habit and persists well on various soil types. It has mid-season maturity which makes it adaptable to medium and high rainfall environments.
CAMPEDA is a superior replacement for Woogenellup and an alternative to Goulburn or Mount Barker and is suited to regions with a 6–7 month growth period. It has been selected to provide excellent winter vigour and has increased levels of persistence due to higher hard seed levels (29%) and superior seed yield compared to that of Woogenellup. The hard seed levels of CAMPEDA makes it suitable for either permanent pasture or short to medium term cropping rotations. CAMPEDA will provide the benefits of fixing soil nitrogen along with providing an effective disease break.
