Common bean GAIDARSKA

Technical Profile: 'Haidarska' Bean

Developed by the Institute of Vegetable and Melon Growing of the NAAS of Ukraine, this bush-type shelling bean variety is engineered for efficient mechanical harvesting. The breeding focus centers on balancing the vegetation period with high-quality grain output.

Plant Architecture and Growth Cycle

The variety is categorized as mid-season, with a vegetation period ranging from 95 to 145 days. The bush-type growth habit reaches a height of 45–60 cm, providing structural stability that eliminates the need for trellising and minimizes lodging risks during adverse weather. This plant geometry is critical for uniform pod ripening and streamlining combine operations.

Pod and Seed Specifications

As a shelling (grain) bean, 'Haidarska' is optimized for high yields. Pod length measures between 9–12 cm, facilitating efficient threshing processes. A key indicator of its performance is the large seed size: the weight of 1000 seeds ranges from 580 to 700 grams. This high seed weight ensures consistent grain production under proper agrotechnical conditions.

The variety is well-suited for commercial farming operations that prioritize consistent grain parameters and structural reliability throughout the pre-harvest phase.
