KUZBASS

The 'Kuzbass' pea variety is a mid-early cultivar of field pea (Pisum sativum L.), recommended for cultivation in the Western Siberia regions, specifically in the Novosibirsk and Kemerovo oblasts. This variety is characterized by non-shattering pods, which significantly facilitates harvest collection and reduces losses. The number of internodes before the first inflorescence ranges from 12 to 15, and the cotyledons are yellow. The mass of 1000 seeds varies from 185 to 222 grams, indicating the size and quality of the seeds.

Kuzbass is characterized by high resistance to shattering, which is an important advantage for mechanized harvesting and storage. The protein content in the grain ranges from 23.7% to 24.8%, making this variety a valuable protein source for feed and food purposes. The average yield of the variety in the region is about 25.1 centners per hectare, confirming its good productivity under Western Siberia conditions.

The Kuzbass variety is suitable for cultivation in temperate climate conditions and demonstrates stable yield indicators. Due to its agronomic characteristics and grain quality, it is a reliable choice for farmers seeking to obtain a high-quality pea crop.
