Hierdie pamflet is bedoel om produsente te help om 

die beste boonkultivars vir hulle toestande te kies. 

Die dokument is gebasseer op die resultate van die 

nasionale droëboon-kultivarproewe. Drie seisoene (2006 

/07 tot 2008/09) se data is gebruik. Die proewe is moont - 

lik gemaak deur die finansiële ondersteuning van die 

Landbounavorsingsraad (LNR), die Droëboonprodusente 

Organi sasie (DPO) en saadmaatskappye. ‘n Groot aantal 

medewerkers soos KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) en Mpumalanga 

se departemente van landbou, landbou koöperasies en 

landbou maatskappye het van die proewe gedoen. Die 

DPO het ook ‘n groot bydrae gelewer.

• Besluit eers op ‘n saadtipe byvoorbeeld rooi gespikkelde 

bone of kleinwit inmaakbone. Doen dit op grond 

van aanvraag, ondervinding en potensiële pryse. 

Kontak die DPO by (012) 808 1660 vir meer inligting. 

• Kies uit beskikbare kultivars dié met die hoogste 

gemiddelde opbrengs en oessekerheid. Tabel 1 bevat 

30 kultivars vir die 2008/2009-seisoen en Tabel 2 

bevat 23 kultivars oor drie seisoene. 

• Sommige kultivars is beter aangepas vir sekere produksiegebiede 

maar dit word nie weerspieël in die 

oessekerheid nie. Kyk dus hoe die kultivars met 

mekaar vergelyk in u produksiegebied (Tabel 3). 

• Vergelyk kultivars in Tabelle 1 en 2 met mekaar by

Droëboonkultivar aanbevelings 

Dry bean cultivar recommendations 

This pamphlet is aimed at helping producers select 

bean cultivars best suited for their particular conditions. 

These recommendations are based on the 

results of the national dry bean cultivar trials. Three 

seasons’ data (2006/07 to 2008/09) were used for this 

purpose. The trials were made possible by the financial 

support of the Agricultural Research Council (ARC), the 

Dry Bean Producers Organisation (DPO) and seed companies. 

A large number of co-operators conducted trials 

i.e. the departments of agriculture of KwaZulu-Natal 

(KZN) and Mpumalanga, agricultural co-operatives and 

agricultural companies. The DPO also had a large 

contribution in this regard. 

How to use this information 

• First decide on a seed type, for instance red speckled 

beans or small white canning beans. It is important to 

keep demand and prospective prices in mind. Contact 

the DPO at (012) 808 1660 for more information. 

• From the available cultivars select those with the 

highest mean yield and yield reliability. Table 1 shows 

the data of 30 cultivars for the 2008/09 season and 

Table 2 shows 23 cultivars for three seasons. 

• Some cultivars are better adapted for certain production 

areas but this is not reflected in the yield-reliability 

table. Use Table 3 to compare the mean yield of the 

cultivars for your production area. 

• Compare cultivars in Tables 1 and 2 at a realistic yield

die kultivar se berekende opbrengs aan ‘n bepaalde 

mik punt is hoe hoër is die opbrengspotensiaal by 

die be trok ke mikpunt. Dit dui op hoër opbrengsstabiliteit. 

• Kyk nou na die eienskappe van die kultivar (Tabel 4) 

om seker te maak dat dit nie ongewenste eienskappe 

het ten opsigte van, byvoorbeeld oopspring, siektevatbaarheid, 

groeiseisoenlengte of saadgrootte nie. 

• Kultivars verskil min van mekaar in hulle vatbaarheid 

vir bakteriese siektes, wortelsiektes en Ascochyta. 

Almal is vatbaar behalwe Kranskop-HR 1 wat vetvleksiekte 

weer stand het en Teebus-RCR 2 wat 

gewone skroei weerstand het. Dit word egter nie in 

Tabel 4 aangedui nie. 

• Stel vas wat die bemarkingsmoontlikhede van die be-

target for your particular farm. The nearer the calculated 

yield of a cultivar comes to the yield target, the 

higher its yield potential at that particular target. This 

indicates higher yield stability. 

• Thereafter study the characteristics of the cultivar of 

your choice (Table 4) to ensure that it has no undesireable 

characteristics in terms of shattering, disease 

susceptibility, growing season requirements or seed 

size. 

• Cultivars do not differ much with respect to their 

susceptibility to bacterial diseases, root diseases and 

Ascochyta (they are all susceptible except Kranskop-HR 

1 that has halo blight resistance and Teebus-RCR 2 

that has common-blight resistance. This is not 

indicated in Table 4.

paalde kultivar is, byvoorbeeld of die inmaakkwaliteit, 

saadgrootte en kleur vir die inmakers of boonhande 

laars aanvaarbaar is. Dit bepaal die prys en dus 

die winsgewendheid. 

• Bestel saad deur u koöperasie, landboumaatskappy, 

saadhandelaar of direk van die betrokke saadfirma. 

Doen dit een seisoen vooruit om te verseker dat u 

saad kry. Waar aangedui word dat dit ‘n nuwe kultivar 

is moet in gedagte gehou word dat twee tot drie jaar 

nodig is om voldoende gesertifiseerde saad daarvan 

te produseer. 

• Dring aan op siektevrye, gesertifiseerde saad om die 

gevaar van saadgedraagde siektes te beperk (bakteriese 

siektes en antraknose). As dit nie beskikbaar is 

nie, gebruik ten minste gesertifiseerde saad. 

Faktore wat kultivaraanpassing 

beïnvloed 

• Roes kom meer in KZN en Mpumalanga voor, veral 

gedurende nat seisoene en by laat aanplantings. In dié 

gebiede moet roesvatbare kultivars dus vermy word. 

• Determine the possible market for a specific cultivar, for 

instance whether the canning quality, seed size or 

colour are acceptable to bean dealers. This determines 

price and therefore the profitability. 

• Order seed from your local cooperative, agricultural 

company, seed dealer or directly from the seed company. 

Do this one season in advance to prevent 

disappointment. In the case of a new cultivar it must be 

borne in mind that at least two years or maybe three 

years are needed to produce sufficient amounts of 

certified seed. 

• Insist on disease free, certified seed to limit the 

detrimental effect of seed-borne diseases. If these are 

not available you should at least insist on certified 

seed.

adaptation

Table 2: Yield reliability at different targets during 2006/07 - 2008/09. 

• Rust is more common in KZN and Mpumalanga, 

especially in late plantings. Avoid rust-susceptible 

cultivars in these areas. The risk can be reduced by

Die risiko kan verminder word deur so vroeg moontlik 

te plant en/of goeie chemiese beheer toe te pas. 

• In Tabel 4 word die invloed van swamdoders op die 

gemiddelde opbrengs van verskillende kultivars oor 

drie seisoene op bespuite en onbespuite proewe op 

Cedara, Greytown en Kokstad aangetoon. Die persentasie 

dui die grootste moontlike opbrengs verhoging 

aan wat ‘n produsent kan verwag as gevolg van die 

beheer van swamsiektes. In die geval van kultivars met 

roesweerstand was die opbrengs verhogings die gevolg 

van die beheer van ander swamsiektes, byvoorbeeld 

Ascochyta en hoekige blaarvlek (HBV). Let asseblief 

daarop dat die resultate van sommige kultivars 

baie tussen seisoene gewissel het en groot afwykings 

van die gemiddeldes wat hier gegee word, kom dus 

voor. Hierdie syfers moet slegs beskou word as aanduidings 

van wat kan gebeur as toestande gunstig is 

vir die ontwikkeling van swam siektes. Hoe verder wes 

die kultivars geplant word, hoe kleiner sal die effek van 

swambeheer wees. 

• Alle kleinsadige kultivars het weerstand teen HBV. Die 

meeste grootsadige kultivars is vatbaar maar die 

afgelope seisoen is 10 met weerstand ingesluit. Hulle 

is PAN 116, Sederberg, PAN 9249, PAN 9275, PAN 

9280, PAN 9281, PAN 139, Mkondeni, Ukulinga en 

OPS-RS 4. 

• Besmetting met bakteriese siektes, veral vetvlek en 

bakteriese bruinvlek is meer algemeen wes van die 

Drakensberge as in KZN. 

• Kultivars met ‘n kort groeiseisoen en ‘n bepaalde groeiwyse 

het oor die algemeen ‘n laer opbrengs potensiaal 

(veral in gebiede met koue nagte) maar is beter 

aangepas by hoër nagtemperature. 

• Kies ‘n kultivar wat inpas in die lengte van die beskikbare 

groeiseisoen. Oor die algemeen kan sewe dae 

afgetrek word van die groeiseisoenlengte wat in Tabel 

4 aangegee word omdat die bone dan reeds fisio logies 

volwasse is en nie meer deur ryp beskadig sal 

word nie. Hoë of lae temperature sal die groeiseisoen 

verkort of verleng en die syfers in Tabel 4 moet dus nie 

as absoluut beskou word nie. Kultivars kan gemiddeld 

10 dae vroeër as normaal ryp word weens warm, droë 

toestande voor oestyd. In koel, nat toestande kan hulle 

10 tot 20 dae later as normaal ryp word. 

• Vermy groot aanplantings van kultivars wat geneig is 

tot oopspring. Oes sulke kultivars so gou moontlik 

nadat hulle oesryp is. Al die kultivars wat hier bespreek 

word, het goeie oopspringweerstand. 

Kleinwit inmaakbone 

Daar is ‘n goeie mark vir inmaakbone. Slegs kultivars wat 

deur die inmakers aanvaar word, behoort aangeplant te 

word aangesien die mark vir kleinwit verpakkingsbone 

beperk is. 

• Teebus (roesvatbaar) het die beste inmaakkwaliteit en 

behaal die hoogste pryse as keurgraadbone. Teebus se 

gemiddelde opbrengs is laer as die ander klein wit 

kultivars. Dit is egter goed aangepas vir Noordwes 

Provinsie en die Oos-Vrystaat. 

• Teebus-RR 1 het die tweede hoogste gemiddelde 

planting as early as possible and/or by application of 

effective chemical control. 

• In Table 4 the effect of fungicides on the yield of 

different cultivars on sprayed and unsprayed trials is 

compared for three seasons at Cedara, Greytown and 

Kokstad. The percentages indicate the largest yield 

increase that a producer can expect as a result of 

control of fungus diseases. In the case of rust-resistant 

cultivars control of other fungus diseases e.g. 

Ascochyta and angular leaf spot (ALS) contributes to 

yield increase. Please note that results varied greatly 

between seasons for some cultivars. This data must 

therefore only be considered as indications of what 

could happen when conditions are favourable for the 

de velopment of fungus diseases. The effect of fungicide 

application will be less pronounced in productions 

further to the west. 

• All small-seeded cultivars are resistant to ALS. Most 

large-seeded cultivars are susceptible but 10 with 

resistance were included in the past season’s trials, 

i.e. PAN 116, Sederberg, PAN 9249, PAN 9275, PAN 

9280, PAN 9281, PAN 139, Mkondeni, Ukulinga and 

OPS-RS 4. 

• Bacterium diseases, especially halo blight and bacterial 

brown spot are more common west of the 

Drakensberg than in KZN. 

• Cultivars with a short growing season, as well as a 

determinate growth habit generally have a lower 

yield potential (especially in areas with cool nights) 

than those with a long growing season. However, 

they are better adapted to higher night temperatures. 

• Select a cultivar that fits into the length of the 

growing season. Generally seven days could be 

deducted from the length of the growing season 

indicated in Table 4 as the beans are already physiologically 

mature at this stage and will not be 

damaged by frost. High or low temperatures will 

shorten or lengthen the growing season and the 

figures in Table 4 must therefore not be regarded 

absolute. Under hot, dry conditions before harvesting 

time beans may ripen on average 10 days earlier than 

usual. Under cool, wet conditions beans may ripen 

10 to 20 days later than usual. 

• Avoid planting large areas with cultivars that are 

prone to shattering. Harvest such cultivars as soon as 

possible after maturity. All the cultivars depicted here 

have good resistance to shattering. 

Small white canning beans 

There is a good market for canning beans. Only cultivars 

that are acceptable to the canners should be grown as 

the market for pre-packed, small-white beans is limited. 

• Teebus (susceptible to rust) has the best canning quality 

and reaches the highest price by producing 

choice-grade beans. The mean yield of Teebus is 

lower than that of the other small-white entries, but, 

it is well adapted in North-West Province and the 

eastern Free State.

opbrengs oor drie seisoene. Dit kom baie ooreen met 

Teebus maar het goeie roesweerstand en is wyd aangepas. 

Sy inmaakkwaliteit is goed en is aanvaarbaar vir 

die inmakers. Saad is hierdie seisoen beskikbaar. 

• PAN 185 en OPS-KW 1 se inmaakkwaliteit is nie aanvaarbaar 

vir die inmakers nie en produsente moet 

seker maak van ‘n mark voordat een van hierdie kultivars 

aangeplant word. Beide het ‘n hoë gemiddelde 

opbrengs en oessekerheid en is wyd aangepas. Saad 

van PAN 185 is beskikbaar. 

• Teebus-RCR 2 is ‘n nuwe kultivar. Dit het die hoogste 

gemiddelde opbrengs oor drie seisoene gehad. Dit 

stem in baie opsigte ooreen met Teebus behalwe dat 

dit weerstand teen roes en gewone skroei het. Dit 

ondergaan egter nog fabriekstoetse. 

• PAN 123 het die tweede hoogste gemiddelde opbrengs 

oor drie seisoene gehad en het goeie roesweer - 

stand. Die resultate van die fabriekstoetse moet bekend 

wees voordat dit vir inmaakdoeleindes aanbeveel kan 

word. 

Rooi gespikkelde bone 

Rooi gespikkelde bone het ‘n groot aanvraag en goeie 

pryse word behaal, maar die mark kan diskrimineer 

teen kultivars met klein sade of ‘n donker agtergrond- 

kleur. 

• Kultivars waarvan daar saad beskikbaar is. Langseisoen 

kultivars met hoë gemiddelde opbrengs en oessekerheid, 

sowel as goeie saadkwaliteit en siekteweerstand is 

OPS-RS 4, PAN 116, Kranskop-HR 1, PAN 128, DBS 

310, Jenny, PAN 9249, DBS 360, PAN 139, PAN 148, 

RS 5, Kranskop, OPS-RS 2, Ukulinga en Mkondeni. 

Opbrengs verskille binne die groep kan so hoog as 0.34 

t ha -1 wees. DBS 360 en PAN 148 het die kleinste sade 

in hierdie groep en PAN 9249 en Jenny die grootste. 

PAN 116, OPS-RS 2 en RS 5 het ‘n baie goeie staanvermoë. 

Die kultivars PAN 135, PAN 118 en Gadra was 

nie in die proewe ingesluit nie maar klein hoeveel hede 

saad is daarvan beskikbaar. 

• Kultivars waarvan daar nie hierdie seisoen saad beskikbaar 

is nie. OPS-RS 1, Sederberg en die nuwer kultivars 

RS 6, PAN 9275, PAN 9280 en PAN 9281. Bonus is baie 

vatbaar vir roes en het ‘n laer opbrengs potensiaal as 

meeste van die langseisoen kultivars. Dit word as 

kontrole ingesluit. 

Carioca bone 

Die mark vir Carioca bone is baie beperk en produsente 

moet seker maak van ‘n afset alvorens hulle dit plant. 

• Mkuzi het ‘n besondere hoë opbrengsvermoë en oessekerheid, 

is wyd aangepas en het goeie weerstand 

teen feitlik alle boonsiektes. Hierdie kultivar word veral 

vir KZN aanbeveel vanweë sy siekteweerstand. Daar is 

egter nie saad beskikbaar nie. 

• CAR 2008 is ‘n nuwe kultivar met ‘n laer opbrengs as 

Mkuzi. Dit het groter sade met ‘n ligter agtergrondkleur. 

Dit het weerstand teen oopspring, roes, HBV en 

BCMV. 

• Teebus-RR 1 produced the second highest mean 

yield over three seasons. It is very similar to Teebus 

except that it is resistant to rust and is widely 

adapted. It has good canning quality that is 

acceptable to canners. Seed is available for this 

season. 

• The canning quality of PAN 185 and OPS-KW 1 is not 

acceptable to canners and producers must secure a 

market before planting one of these cultivars. Both 

have a high mean yield as well as yield reliability and 

are widely adapted. Seed of PAN 185 is available. 

• Teebus-RCR 2 had the highest mean yield over three 

seasons. It is similar to Teebus in many respects 

except that it is resistant to rust and common blight. 

It is still undergoing factory canning tests. 

• PAN 123 had the second highest mean yield over 

three seasons and has good disease resistance. 

Results of factory canning tests must, however, be 

available before it can be recommended for canning 

purposes. 

Red speckled beans 

There is a good market for red-speckled beans and high 

prices can be obtained. However, the market might discriminate 

against cultivars with small seeds or a dark 

background colour. 

• Cultivars of which seed is available. Long-season cultivars 

with high mean yields and yield reliability as well 

as acceptable seed quality and disease resistance are 

OPS-RS 4, PAN 116, Kranskop-HR 1, PAN 128, DBS 

310, Jenny, PAN 9249, DBS 360, PAN 139, PAN 148, 

RS 5, Kranskop, OPS-RS 2, Ukulinga and Mkondeni. 

Yield differences in this group can be as high as 0.34 t 

ha -1. In this group DBS 360 and PAN 148 have the 

smallest seeds and PAN 9249 and Jenny the largest. 

PAN 116, OPS RS 2 and RS 5 have excellent lodging 

resistance. PAN 135, PAN 118 and Gadra were not included 

in this season’s trials but small quantities of 

seed are available. 

• Cultivars of which no seed is available are OPS-RS 1, 

Sederberg and the newer cultivars i.e. RS 6, PAN 9275, 

PAN 9280 and PAN 9281. Bonus is highly suscept - 

ible to rust and has a lower yield potential than most 

of the long-season cultivars. It was included as a 

control. 

Carioca beans 

The market for Carioca beans is very limited and producers 

must ascertain the availability of a market before 

growing these cultivars. 

• Mkuzi had decidedly high yields and yield reliability, is 

widely adapted and has high levels of resistance to 

almost all bean diseases. This cultivar is recommended 

for KZN because of its disease resistance. However, 

there will be no seed available. 

• Car 2008 is a new cultivar with a lower yield than 

Mkuzi. It has larger seeds with a lighter background 

colour. It is resistant to shattering, rust, ALS and BCM. 



Ander saadtipes 

Lappiesbone (kultivar Maskam) word hoofsaaklik in die 

Wes-Kaap onder besproeiing verbou vanweë sy siektevatbaarheid 

en kwaliteitsvereistes. Die mark hiervoor is 

baie beperk. 

Grootwit nierbone 

Daar is ‘n beperkte plaaslike mark vir groot wit nierbone. 

Dit behaal hoë pryse gedurende seisoene wanneer daar 

nie oorproduksie is nie. 

• SSN 1 (nie in proewe) is die enigste kultivar in hierdie 

saadtipe. Bye is nodig vir bestuiwing. Nierbone is baie 

gevoelig vir hoë temperature gedurende die blomperiode 

en dit word daarom slegs aanbeveel vir koel, 

hoë-reënvalgebiede waar dit hoë opbrengste gee. 

Weens sy hoë siekteweerstand is nierbone in hierdie 

gebiede beter aangepas as byvoorbeeld rooi gespikkelde 

bone. Geen gesertifiseerde saad is beskikbaar 

nie. Die mark vir nierbone is baie beperk.

Other seed types 

Painted Lady (cultivar Maskam) is mainly produced in the 

Western Cape under irrigation because of its disease 

susceptibility and quality requirements. Its market is very 

limited. 

Large white kidney beans 

There is a limited local market for large white kidney 

beans. They reach high prices in seasons when overproduction 

does not occur. 

• SSN 1 (not included in the trials) is the only cultivar 

available in this seed type. Kidney beans are very 

sensitive to high temperatures during the flowering 

period. Bees are necessary for pollination. They are 

only recommended for the cool, high-rainfall areas 

where high yields can be obtained. Because of their 

disease resistance, kidney beans are better adapted in 

these areas than for instance red-speckled beans. No 

certified seed is available.

Verslag oor die droëbone 

strookproewe 

Report on the dry bean strip trials 

Inleiding / Introduction 

Sedert die 2006/07 seisoen was droëbone strookproewe 

beplan en uitgevoer as ‘n gesamentlike projek 

tussen die Droëbone Produsente Orga ni sasie 

(DPO), die saad maat skappy PANNAR en die LNR-Instituut 

vir Graan ge wasse (LNR-IGG) met die volgende doelwitte: 

a) Evaluering van die verskillende kommersieël beskikbare 

droëboonkultivars op ‘n skaal wat produsente in staat 

sal stel om dit te vergelyk met hulle eie toestande. 

b) Vergelyking van die aanpassing en opbrengspotensiaal 

van kultivars op ’n groter skaal as in die nasionale droëbone 

kultivarproewe (kultivarproewe). 

c) Evaluering van akkerboukundige eienskap pe soos 

weerstand teen omval, oopspring en geskiktheid vir 

meganiese oes. 

d) Gebruik deur saadmaatskappye vir be markingsdoeleindes 

tydens inligtingsdae en besoeke deur produsente 

en verteenwoordigers. 

Metodes / Methods 

AJ Liebenberg & D Fourie 

LNR-Instituut vir Graangewasse / ARC-Grain Crops Institute 

One 25kg bag of certified seed per cultivar was supplied 

for each trial and planted under the production practices 

of the producer in strips of three, four or eight rows. 

Each trial consisted of 12 red speckled cultivars, with a 

control strip at the start and finish, as well as after every 

four cultivars. Only one cultivar was used as control 

within each trial, but different controls were used in the 

different production regions (see Tables 1 - 4). The trials 

were planted and harvested at the same time as the 

commercial beans and a representative of a seed company 

supervised both activities. During the growing 

season producers and representatives visited the trials. 

Information days were held at some of the trials. 

Die proefresultate is statisties ontleed en die opbrengs is 

be reken. Die opbrengs (t ha-1 ) en die opbrengs as 

persentasie van die kontrole asook hulle rangordes is 

bereken vir elke proef en produksiegebied. Die variasie 

tussen die kontrole stroke is gebruik om die uniformiteit 

(koëfisient van variasie (CV)) van ‘n proef te bereken. 

Wanneer die CV te hoog was is die resultate as onbetroubaar 

beskou en is nie gebruik in die berekening 

van die gemiddeldes van ‘n produksiegebied nie. Vir elke 

gebied is die gemiddelde opbrengs van die kultivars ook 

vergelyk met dié in die kultivarproewe. Wan neer die 

rangordes van ‘n kultivar in die twee stelle proewe met 

drie of minder verskil het is dit beskou as ‘n goeie ooreenkoms. 

Resultate / Results 

Yields of the different sites varied mainly as a result of the 

difference in rainfall/irrigation and soil type. The yields are 

expressed in t ha -1 and as a percentage of the control. The 

ranks of the yield in t ha -1 and percentage of the control 

differed slightly in a few instances. 

Oos Vrystaat / Eastern Free State 

(Tabel / Table 1) 

a) Die gemiddelde opbrengs van die strookproewe (1.88 

t ha-1 ) was laer as dié van die kultivarproewe (2.30 t 

ha-1 ). 

b) Vier kultivars het hoër opbrengste in die strookproewe 

gehad: PAN 116, PAN 139, PAN 9249 en DBS 310. 

c) Die helfte van die kultivars het goeie ooreenkomste 

tussen die twee stelle proewe getoon: OPS-RS 4 (hoog) 

PAN 128, PAN 148, RS 5, Kranskop en OPS-RS 2. 

Mpumalanga (Tabel / Table 2) 

Wanneer die gemiddelde opbrengs van die strook- en 

kultivar proewe vergelyk word sien ons die volgende verskille 

en ooreenkomste. 

a) Die gemiddelde opbrengs van die strookproewe (2.94 

t ha-1 ) was hoër as dié van die kultivarproewe (1.81 t 

ha-1 ). 

b) OPS-RS 2 het beter gepresteer in die strookproewe 

terwyl DBS 310 en PAN 139 beter presteer het in die 

kultivar proewe. 

c) Die meerderheid van die kultivars (9) se opbrengs het 

rede like ooreenkomte in rangorde getoon tussen die 

twee stelle proewe behalwe PAN 128, DBS 310 en DBS 

360. 

North West (Table 3) 

Comparing the means of the strip and cultivar trials we 

observe the following: 

a) The mean yield of the strip trials (2.75 t ha -1 ) was 

higher than that of the cultivar trials (2.37 t ha -1 ). 

b) The following cultivars had higher yields in the strip 

trials: PAN 128, DBS 310 and PAN 116. 

c) Seven cultivars showed similarity in rank between the 

two sets of trials: DBS 360, OPS-RS 4, Kranskop-HR 1, 

Kranskop, PAN 139, PAN 9249 and RS 5. 



2007/08-2008/09 

VERSLAG OOR DIE DROËBONE STROOKPROEWE • REPORT ON THE DRY BEAN STRIP TRIALS 

KwaZulu-Natal (Tabel / Table 4) 

Trials were planted at two localities i.e. Vryheid (irrigation) 

and Greytown (rain fed) but the trial at Vryheid was damaged 

by wind during the harvesting process and the results of the 

remaining trial are given in Table 4. 

Comparing the mean yields of the strip and the cultivar trials 

we see that: 

a) The mean of the cultivar trials (2.81 t ha -1) was higher 

than that of the Greytown trial (2.09 t ha -1). 

b) The following cultivars ranked higher in the strip trials: 

PAN 148, DBS 360, Kranskop and DBS 310. 

c) There was similarity between the ranks in the strip- and 

cultivar trials in the case of for the following four cultivars: 

OPS-RS 4, RS 5, PAN 139 and PAN 128. 

Limpopo (Tabel / Table 4) 

One trial was planted under irrigation at Bela-Bela. Com paring 

the yields of the strip and cultivar trials we observe the 

following. 

a) The mean of the strip trial (3.04 t ha -1) was much higher 

than that of the cultivar trial (1.85 t ha -1). 

b) The following two cultivars ranked higher in the strip trial: 

OPS-RS 4 and Kranskop-HR 1. 

c) PAN 116 and PAN 9249 ranked higher in the cultivar trial. 

d) There was considerable similarity in the ranking of the 

other eight cultivars.

Strookproewe vergelyk oor seisoene / 

Strip trials compared over three seasons 

(Tabel / Table 5) 

As gevolg vandie feit dat die inskrywings tussen jare en 

provinsies verskil het, is dit moeilik om algemene gevolgtrekkings 

te maak. ‘n Paar kultivars het oor drie seisoene en in 

al drie gebiede konstant hoë opbrengste behaal naamlik OPS- 

RS 4 en DBS 310 terwyl DBS 360 en PAN 148 in twee gebiede 

hoë opbrengste behaal het. PAN 116 het geneig om te varieer 

terwyl Kranskop en OPS-RS 2 ‘n laer rangorde gehad het. 

Vergelyking van die strook en kultivarproewe 

oor drie seisoene / 

Comparison of the strip and cultivar 

trials over three seasons (Tabel / Table 6) 

Some cultivars tended to be consistently high yielding over 

seasons and regions i.e. OPS-RS 4, DBS 310 and DBS 360. 

Others were inclined to vary much i.e. PAN 116 and PAN 128. 

The following had some consistency towards specific 

adaptation: OPS-RS 4 and PAN 116 in the eastern Free State, 

DBS 360 in Mpumalanga and PAN 9249 in KwaZulu-Natal. 

Die waarde van die inligting / 

The value of the information 

Die strookproef data kan gebruik te word as ‘n aanduiding 

van die opbrengspotensiaal van die kultivars. Die groter 

oppervlakte wat geplant word en die meganisasie van die 

plant, oes en dors prosesse is vergelykbaar met normale 

boerderypraktyke. Die kultivarproefdata daarinteen, behoort 

gebruik te word om die relatiewe prestasies van al die 

beskikbare kultivars met mekaar te vergelyk. Dit is meer 

betroubaar want dit is die resultaat van ‘n groter aantal 

proewe en onbetroubares word makliker geïdentifiseer en 

uitgeskakel.
