Cimarron 3i is the third improvement of the Cimarron alfalfa variety. As with the previous versions of this variety, Cimarron 3i is characterized by high yield, excellent forage quality, and long stand persistence. It offers large leaves and pronounced axillary branching that results in fine stems and high protein. Cimarron 3i�s excellent leaf disease resistance results in good leaf retention, allowing producers �to get it all� in the bale. Cimarron 3i also provides a moderate level of resistance to the alfalfa weevil. This resistance allows the producer to delay a decision to spray, and it may reduce the amount of insecticide needed by one half. In years with moderate infestation of weevil, Cimarron 3i may provide enough resistance to forego spraying entirely. Cimarron 3i�s multiple pest resistance, high yield potential, excellent forage quality, and its adaptation to all of Kansas make it a highly recommended variety.
