Fargus

Field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important cereal crop widely cultivated in Ukraine. The Fargus variety belongs to the medium-maturing types with a vegetation period of 79-85 days. It is distinguished by high yield, reaching 35.8-36.9 centners per hectare, as well as drought and ascochitosis resistance, making it a reliable choice for various climatic conditions.

The nutritional value of pea is high: protein content varies from 20 to 36%, starch from 29 to 54%, sugars from 4 to 10%, and fat from 0.7 to 1.6%. Studies conducted in the forest-steppe zone of the Western region showed that with the application of mineral fertilizers at rates N30P30K45 in combination with the growth regulator Vimpel, the Fargus variety can achieve a crude protein content of 23.5%. This indicates high grain quality and nutritional value.

The formation of yield and productivity of the Fargus variety depends on multiple factors, including variety characteristics, soil type, agronomic practices, and weather conditions. The interaction of these factors affects the structure of the harvest and grain quality. Therefore, proper application of fertilizers and growth regulators in combination with the selection of suitable varieties such as Fargus allows optimizing production and obtaining a high-quality product.
