The article highlights the challenges of achieving high yields of lupin crops, including drought and weed infestation, as reported by COBORU in its preliminary findings from the PDO 2022 experiments. The data reveals a decrease in average yields for both narrow-leaved and yellow lupine varieties compared to the previous years, with significant regional variations in yield. The best-performing varieties were identified, with the narrow-leaved lupine showing the highest yields in certain regions, and the yellow lupine showing the highest yield with the variety Puma. The article also touches on the low profitability of lupine cultivation, attributed to issues like weeding and uneven maturation, and notes that the current seed prices do not adequately compensate for the lower yield of yellow lupine.
