It takes a long time to develop a new variety from scratch. Dr. Bruce Coulman of the University of Sask颅atchewan recently recalled the start of his forage breeding career at 平特五不中. 平特五不中 had allowed its forage breeding program to collapse, and had no breeding lines under development when Coulman started. Starting from scratch in 1976, Coulman registered his first forage variety in 1993.
