Gregor pea is a high-yielding and resilient variety widely used in Ukrainian agriculture. This variety is characterized by high protein content — 22-23% — making it valuable for both food and animal feed purposes. Gregor pea belongs to the hairy type with pinnate, upright leaves and yellow pods containing spherical seeds. The pods are full and densely filled, contributing to high yield.
The Gregor variety is distinguished by its drought resistance and lodging resistance due to well-developed tendrils, which allow plants to cling to each other. It is adapted to sharp temperature fluctuations and resistant to pests, ensuring stable yields under various climatic conditions. The vegetation period is up to 85 days, allowing cultivation across the entire territory of Ukraine, including southern regions with a drier climate.
The average yield of Gregor pea in Ukraine ranges from 36 to 52 centners per hectare, with potential yields reaching 60 centners per hectare. The recommended seeding rate is 250-300 kg per hectare, with planting beginning in early March, adjusted for regional climatic conditions. Thanks to its characteristics and versatility, the Gregor variety is an excellent choice for farmers aiming to achieve abundant and high-quality yields.
