This year, Kitchen Seed Company has added a new alfalfa variety to their line-up, FSG 421 Leaf Hopper Resistant Alfalfa. This alfalfa is beneficial because the plant produces a glandular hair that is not attractive to the leaf hopper. Leaf hoppers feed on alfalfa plants, when this happens, it stunts the growth and reduces the yield. This field was planted in September of 2019.
