Bean Udacha

Technical Specifications of the 'Udacha' Variety

The 'Udacha' bean variety, developed by the Astrakhan Experimental Station, is a classic representative of the bush-type vegetable (snap) bean. From an agronomic standpoint, this variety is optimized for producing high-quality pods during a medium-late maturity window. With a growth cycle exceeding 100 days, 'Udacha' requires careful scheduling to match the regional frost-free growing season.

Morphological Features and Utility

The core advantage of this variety is the total absence of a parchment layer within the pods. This design feature makes 'Udacha' ideal for whole-pod consumption or processing, as it eliminates the need to remove fibrous threads. In the stage of technical maturity, the pods exhibit a uniform white color, which serves as a visual marker for harvest readiness.

• Plant Architecture: Bush-type. A compact, self-supporting structure that facilitates efficient harvesting and optimal plant density per hectare.
• Product Type: Asparagus (Snap) bean. The absence of lignified tissues ensures a tender texture suitable for premium food segments.
• Growth Period: >100 days. Designed for cultivars requiring stable heat accumulation to achieve peak pod development.
• Color: White. A key characteristic that simplifies quality control and sorting during the post-harvest phase.

The variety shows consistent yield performance when cultivated with standard agronomic practices. Its resilience to common field challenges, combined with its high culinary value, makes 'Udacha' a reliable choice for commercial vegetable producers focusing on fresh markets and frozen food production.
