Feed pea is an annual plant from the legume family, widely used in agriculture due to its hardiness and high nutritional value. This pea variety is distinguished by its early maturity, ripening in approximately 80–85 days, which allows for multiple harvests per season. The plant reaches a height of 55-65 cm and possesses high resistance to drought, lodging, shattering, and various diseases, ensuring stable and high-quality yields.
Feed pea is valued for its high protein content in the grains, making it an excellent source of nutrients comparable in composition to meat. It is cultivated not only for grain production but also for green fodder mass and used as a cover crop to improve soil fertility. Seeds of this variety are suitable for creating mixtures with other cover crops, such as yellow mustard, foxtail millet, rapeseed, and soybean, expanding its application possibilities in agronomy.
Feed pea is easy to grow due to its resistance to unfavorable conditions, including temperature drops and excess moisture in the absence of water stagnation. The sowing rate is 3-3.5 kg per hundred square meters, allowing for effective planning of sowing operations.
