Eighty-five cowpea lines were evaluated in observation and cutting trials at Berrimah Research Farm, Douglas Daly Research Farm and Katherine Experiment Farm between 1977 and 1981. Of the lines evaluated for fodder production, some were identified which had both high fodder and seed yields. One of these was later released as cultivar Arafura. None of the lines evaluated between 1977 and 1980 for grain production were the large black-eye type preferred by consumers. some lines evaluated only in 1981 are that type.
