Field pea variety FLAGMAN 5 is a high-yielding and early-maturing variety, distinguished by its resistance to diseases and unfavorable climatic conditions. This variety is ideal for cultivation in various climatic zones, making it a versatile choice for agricultural producers. FLAGMAN 5 is a determinate and leafless variety, with yellow cotyledons and no anthocyanin pigmentation, indicating its specific morphological features.
The variety belongs to the medium-maturing group, which allows for planning sowing and harvesting dates in accordance with agronomic requirements and regional climatic conditions. Thanks to its disease resistance, FLAGMAN 5 reduces the risk of crop loss and contributes to the stable production of quality raw materials. The authors of the variety are Svetlana Romanovna Knyazhkova, Alexander Yegorovich Zubov, and Lyudmila Alekseevna Kosyreva.
For effective pea cultivation, FLAGMAN 5 recommends using selective herbicides aimed at destroying annual dicot weeds, including those resistant to 2,4-D and MCPA. In particular, using a herbicide with bentazon as the active ingredient at a concentration of 480 g/l helps protect crops from weeds when optimal application conditions are observed, such as air temperature of 15 to 25 °C and working fluid application rate of 250-300 l/ha. At the same time, it is important to avoid mixing with grass-killing herbicides to preserve treatment effectiveness.
