	Lentil
		Lentil plants are slender, semi-erect annuals with compound leaves (4 to 7 pairs of leaflets) with a tendril at the tips.
		Lentil is adapted to cool growing conditions, and the young plants are tolerant of spring frosts.
		Lentil is not very competitive (especially as seedlings) with many of the grasses and/or broadleaf weed species that infest farm fields, so weed control before planting and early in the growing season is critical.

		Lentil seeds may be stored in a bin at 14 percent moisture; however, they should be combined at 18 to 22 percent moisture to decrease the number of cracked seeds.
