Pea Solara

Reliable grain pea yields with Innoseed b.v.

The «Solara» pea variety from the Dutch breeding company Innoseed b.v. is a proven solution for farmers focused on achieving commercial grain with predictable quality parameters. The choice of this variety is primarily driven by its biological reliability, which is critical in intensive farming systems.

Field protection and resilience

The main challenge when growing legumes remains the risk of lodging and fungal diseases, which can reduce yields by 20–30%. «Solara» demonstrates strong genetic resistance to Fusarium root rot and Ascochyta blight. This allows agronomists to optimize their fungicide application schedules, reducing the overall pesticide load without the risk of losing crops during critical developmental stages.

Practical application in crop rotation

• High adaptability: The variety is optimized for mechanical harvesting, which is critical for large-scale operations. Uniform ripening minimizes losses during direct combining.
• Grain stability: Intended specifically for grain production. Dutch breeding ensures consistent grain size and excellent protein content, simplifying the sale of produce on both domestic and export markets.
• Field hardiness: Due to a well-developed root system, the variety effectively utilizes soil moisture during the pod-filling period, making it a preferred choice for regions with erratic rainfall.

Integrating «Solara» into a production program is a strategy for mitigating operational risks. By selecting this variety, the farmer invests not just in seeds, but in technological discipline, ensuring that every hectare provides a stable return when standard cultivation protocols are followed.
