SHERGIE is a mid-season vegetable pea variety with round green pods measuring 6-7 cm in length, each containing 6 to 8 grains. The plant is of medium height, reaching about 70 cm, features a robust structure and a rich green rosette of leaves. This variety is stress-resistant and suitable for both mechanical and manual harvesting, making it easy to grow and harvest.
SHERGIE is intended for fresh consumption and is widely used on the fresh market and in culinary applications. The weight of 1000 seeds ranges from 80 to 330 grams, with 3 to 5 seeds per gram. Direct sowing is recommended with a rate of 2-3 kg per centner, suitable for spring and summer rotations. The plant prefers sunny, open areas with light and fertile soils and germinates poorly on poor soils with high nitrogen content.
With proper care and adherence to agronomic recommendations, SHERGIE pea ensures a high yield. Seeds are best sown after crops such as pumpkin, cucumber, potato, or cabbage, which promotes faster development and increases productivity by 30-40%. Due to the development of special microorganisms in the root zone, the plant enriches the soil with nitrogen, improving its quality and contributing to sustainable agriculture.
