The aim of this paper was to determine yield and digestibility of 12 experimental populations of alfalfa, and to compare their results to the yields of well-known domestic alfalfa commercial cultivars. The results show significant differences in yield of green forage and dry matter among alfalfa populations, as well as in yield components, height, proportion of leaves in yield and growth rate. Differences between in vitro digestible dry matter (%) and yields of in vitro digestible dry matter (t/ha) were also significant. Yield and quality of experimental populations were at the same level or higher than of control cultivars. Synthetic SINUSA exceeded the control cultivars (NS Mediana ZMS V and Banat VS) in yield and quality of dry matter.
