Pea BUYAN

Technical Profile of «Buyan» Pea

The «Buyan» pea variety is the result of focused breeding efforts by the Russian FRC ICG SB RAS and the Siberian Federal Research Center of Agrobiotechnologies. Its development focuses on balancing early maturity with robust resistance to various pathogens. From an agronomic standpoint, this variety is optimized for high adaptability and consistent grain yields under varying environmental conditions.

Phytopathological Resistance as a Yield Driver

The hallmark of the «Buyan» variety is its innate genetic tolerance to a complex of fungal diseases. By mitigating infection pressure during high-humidity periods, the variety consistently displays resistance to:

• Ascochytosis: preventing stem and leaf damage that typically limits yield potential.
• Anthracnose: protecting the crop from early wilting and quality degradation.
• Root Rot: ensuring the integrity and functionality of the root system throughout the growth cycle.

This natural resistance profile allows farmers to reduce the dependency on intensive fungicide applications, improving the economic efficiency of the crop production cycle.

Biological Parameters and Nutritional Value

The vegetation period of «Buyan» ranges from 70 to 90 days. This flexibility allows the crop to avoid mid-summer moisture deficits by utilizing early spring rains effectively. The plant height is engineered for mechanized harvesting, ensuring minimal losses during combine operations. The protein content ranges from 20% to 22%, making it a valuable candidate for both animal feed and processed food markets.
